Pros:

This monitor is built to extremely high standards. You can feel the quality inherent in it when unpacking it. It is just simply a well made piece of technology.
The buttonless controls are nice. They are similar to the PS3, but function much better, they are quick and responsive. The adjustment menu is extensive, you can set it up just the way you want.
The USB hub is a nice feature for me, i have a Macbook Pro 15", which means only 2 USB ports. So having extras is nice, and having them on the monitor is excellent because when not on the road the laptop sits closed behind the monitor so everything is functional but hidden.
The input selection is nice, i bought this to use as a monitor for my MBP, but also to use as a panel for my PS3. So the HDMI was vital, and it functions flawlessly, of course.
The swivel feature is very nice, it makes reading in Acrobat or a long web page quite easy.
The color is great, blacks are deep, LED wonderful.

Cons:

This monitor could use a remote, since it functions as a HDTV as well as a monitor. It would be convenient.
The sound goes out, and stays out for a few seconds each time you hit the input key. It is moderately annoying, but nothing i can't live with.
The lettering on the "buttons" is very small and hard to read. In a very bright or very dark room it is nigh on impossible. This is another reason a remote would be grand.
There is nothing i notice that would detract from its overall rating.

Overall Review:

Newegg gets the nod yet again on their price and shipping. Their cost was lower than everybody else's. They got it to me in 36 hours on free shipping via UPS. Normally UPS takes forever to reach me, so this was a pleasant surprise.
I am very satisfied with this monitor. There are no burnt pixels, no cosmetic flaws, nothing at all wrong with it. The only problems are little niggling things that do not make much overall difference.
