Thanks to both Thomas Kunz and Tom Lianza from X-rite for jumping in
to clarify the situation somewhat.

The recommended end-user price for the "OBC module" in US is $ 300.
This is
an upgrade for the installed base of iSis/ProfileMaker or
iSis/MonacoProfiler users. New iSis units being produced and sold
from now
on do include the Charts already and the software can be downloaded
when it
ships (target is end of June). Also - at Drupa - we have launched
new price
attractive bundles that include an iSis or iSisXL with a choice of
ProfileMaker5 Publish or Monaco Profiler Gold plus the new OBC Module.
Best regards, Thomas

The process requires a set of reference plaques that utilize media

That is why there are still some unknowns about cost and
availablity, but the fact that this will cost something should be
considered axiomatic.
With respect to utilization of press media, I don't think that the
process will require a press run. Remember, it is the strength of
the brightener used in the paper itself that is being measured. The
key to the process is the visual evaluation under the illumination
of choice. I know that it works across multiple printer types/
technologies when printed on the same media, but I'm not sure if we
have run any press tests yet. In any event, it is a great
improvement over earlier techniques.
I am certainly glad that I don't have to deal with that issue in
most of my work...
