I find it excellent and have calibrated it quite happily with my Spyder 3. It can rotate to portrait format.
It's 22" and cost me GBP 350ish. They don't do a directly comparable 24" version. There's a PA421 which seems to have the same specs but it's quite a bit more expensive at around GBP 800. I find the 22" plenty big enough for my needs.
