This LCD is an excellent combination of a reasonable price point ..., beautiful design, and excellent performance.
We replaced a 21" hulk of a CRT with this and, to say the least, it has redefined our workspace. My wife raves about the clarity and brightness of the picture, which she uses almost every night to edit legal documents for work. This is an excellent monitor for every day web-browsing, documents, or spreadsheets. I have made the switch from CRT to LCD and won't be going back.
Another benefit of this monitor is the faster-than-normal response time of 16ms - most monitors are in the 24ms range. I have read reviews of another LCD that has a 12ms response but it wasn't borne out in the reviewer's testing with 3d action games. Using the DVI input, I have played a few levels of 'Call of Duty' on this monitor and noted no ghosting or lagging on the response time, and I'll also add that the sound quality of the speakers at the bottom of the monitor are above-average for what I've personally heard from monitor or desk top speakers. That being said, if you use your computer almost exclusively for FPS gaming this probably isn't your solution...
The styling is very unique, with a swooping stand that is a departure from other LCD's. It does seem that there is more unused space bordering the actual screen than other monitors in this class, however.
