I did? Where did you get that idea? I'm considering purchasing the company

Rumored software? Its listed on the NEC web page, didn't you say you saw it
there? Its out of stock. So what's all the grassy knoll conspiracy theories
all about? Do you know how to use Google? There are all kinds of sites that
list this rumored product. Is the fact that they have no stock make this
some kind of rumored software or simply software that's not in stock? Oh,
NED doesn't want you to see it, they've pulled all the inventory. Give us a
break. Its OUT OF STOCK. Man, I'd hate to go to dinner with you and see what
you'd do when you hear the kitchen is out of Raw meat!

I can hardly contain my excitement. But you're concluding right? We can stop
hearing about the rumored, out of stock software?

Right, and you're not happy with that. So what should we on the list gather?
That either ColorEyes Pro isn't the appropriate software to use, or you have
a dud display. Do you happen to have any other software products you can
try? Do we know your instrument isn't iffy? Or should we just assume that
based on this set of limited testing, this display is a piece of crap?
What's your agenda?

So what? So did the Barco and the Pressivew and the Artisan. Lets see, what
company do you represent? Integrated Color Corporation! Might you be unhappy
about the qualities some of us who HAVE used this proprietary protocol are
reporting with our NEC's?

Well when you get the rumored software, let us know.

You're doing a lot of looking at a glance. Might I suggest when you have
something concrete to say about this particular unit, other than your
inability to find the software (oh sorry, rumored software), you let us know
your opinions which are just that, opinions. How many posts do we need to
read about your inability to find a piece of (rumored) software?

So do they use proprietary protocols not shared with the outside industry?
Is this important to anyone other than someone who sells a product to
calibrate a display?

Well there you have it, it must be non existent vaporware.
