Andrew,
Thanks for the lightning fast response. I am not in a huge hurry but I
am strongly considering moving from my Spyder to the new Eye-One Display
when it is released. From what I understand, the Eye-One Display is
actually a Sequel Imaging device. Is there any truth to this? So does
that mean the Eye-One Display is same as the MonacoOPTIX under the hood?
I know that the Eye-One Pro is the device that can take reflective
readings. Is there a difference between the device that was bundled
with the Eye-One Pro package versus the new Eye-One Photo package? As
far as I can tell, Eye-One Photo and Eye-One Pro are the same with the
exception of new Eye-One Match 2.O software.
Please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks,
Craig

EyeOne Match 2.0 was posted the other night so you can get that software
now.
The differences in EyeOne Display and the older unit is quite a bit in
regards to the look and technology. The newer unit is a Colorimeter and
is much less expensive ($249 verses $600). I have both and did beta on
Match 2.0 and can't say I see any difference in the resulting quality of
the calibration/profiling on the one CRT I worked with. The good news is
the software is MUCH improved in dealing with the display. In the past I
didn't really like it much but 2.0's algorithm's must be quite different
because now I'm seeing some really nice results with the new software
and both the newer and older hardware. Unless you're in a huge hurry I
can't see why you'd want to spend more money for the older EyeOne
instead of the EyeOne Display. The EyeOne Pro is the device that can
read reflective to produce output profiles. It too works well with the
new software. A newer unit allows you to use the newer Ambient light
goodie to measure a light source which will be handy when the next Rev
of ProfileMaker Pro ships. You'll be able to build an output profile
using this measured data.
