I'm thinking of getting a new monitor for my desktop. Around 20-23" widescreen and it should have 2 inputs, one should be HDMI and the other can either be a HDMI or dvi. Suggestions?

I haven't had a need to replace my monitor in 5-7 years (it is only now just starting to develop problems that would warrant its replacement). I have been eying Asus LCDs for the past couple years, and have to say- based on 1000-ish reviews on Newegg for each of their top selling monitors (which just happen to be in your size range) I'm sold on them.
Check out this link (which I have sorted to "most reviews").
Good luck, let us know what you end up going with...
EDIT- As a technical note, DVI and HDMI are compatible with use of a HDMI-DVI or DVI-HDMI adapter without signal loss (only up to 1.3a, unless I'm mistaken). So, don't let HDMI be your only reason for choosing a particular monitor. Amazon sells the adapters reasonably, if I remember correctly (~$10-12).

The speakers on computer monitors in general are low powered and not anywhere near the capabilities of a decent set of desktop speakers anyway, the only advantage is in reducing desktop clutter.

There's been speculation that the opensource/royalty-free DisplayPort could replace (non-free) HDMI/DVI in future monitors.
