After hearing Rave reviews I bought one of these at around £310.
I was really looking forward to getting it, Anyway I was really disappointed, the big problem with this monitor is that the image isn't consistent across the screen.
It uses the cheaper TN LCD panel and because the screen is so big you really notice the poor viewing angle. The screen is noticeable darker at the top than the bottom.
To sum up, you get what you pay for, if you want a cheap big monitor for playing games and watching films then its OK. But if you want it for desktop or graphics work, forget it. Buy a screen with an MVA or other high quality panel.
Also don't forget if you go for any large monitor, make sure your graphics card will power it OK.
