Well, finally I purchased CM and what a spectrophotometer it is GREAT!
My U2410 profiles perfectly in Standard mode at 30 brightness and 50 contrast.
My paper profiles rival those made professionally at $30 a clip before.
Worth every penny.
BTW, I also discovered a new software from Quato in Germany, iColor Display. It has a "correction matrix" for dtp94 to use with wide gamut monitors. It's the best software I have used so far. They tell me that later in 2010 it will support CM as well.

Think about it...
What the Munki will allow you to do is to get a more accurate calibration and profile, because it will not suffer from the effects of a wide-gamut screen like a colorimeter (e.g.  dtp94 measures a certain color temperature, say 6500K, the real value may be several 100K off for wide-gamut unless the values are corrected. Same for the primaries and other colors). Please note that this increase of 'absolute' accuracy will NOT show in things like profile verification/validation results, because a profile built from one set of (wrong) measurements from a colorimeter and wide-gamut screen will also verify good against another set of (wrong) measurements of the same colorimeter and screen (if the screen parameters are the same and it hasn't drifted much).
It's sort of like blind leading blind.
It just cannot be done with colorimeter without corrective matrix.

There is nothing to verify, because your results are false in the first place.
you need correction matrix or spectrophotometer device. The colorimeter wont do.

Roma,
From what I gather from many forums colorimeter doesn't do a very good job calibrating "wide gamut" monitors. For that you need Colormunki, which is spectrophotometer, like i1 pro. Another alternative is to get correction matrix from Quata, which makes iDisplay Color, but it costs additional. I can't accurately calibrate with dpt94 (OPTIXXR) either. These are the only ways to get good calibration of such a monitors.
Read on the forums and you will see what I mean.

I'm thinking buying it, but before I do, I would like some input from actual users. It would replace my dtp94 colorimeter.
Thank you!

Why is that so? How does QI use monitor profile than?
I don't understand this.

Ray,
This is your 5 cents, but I disagree with you.
Fred,
I'll send you a chart.
Thank you!

If image is in given color space let say Pro-photo, how can it be opened in different color space in either application? When I hit CTRL-i it says Pro-photo and CS$ says the same.

When I read RGB colors in CS4 the values shown are different than in QIS "current color". Why is that?
Thank you!

Where did you send pm? what is it?
Thank you!

Hi Ray
Which of this represent the best profile?

What does this chart mean?

Which monitor are you profiling? If you have RGB adjustments (gain and offset), brightness and contrast in your monitor OSD, then you should be fine. Some suggest setting all monitor setting to defaults before calibrating it.

Hi Terry,
Installation took only 4 minutes. It's not geeky at all and very simple, if you know a little bit about calibration of anything.
The other GUI has an option for printers, scanners, monitors, projectors, etc....and it's more icon oriented I guess. For dummies?
No reason to be upset that it's so good.
Are you calling me names? Geek....

I stumbled on a shareware calibration program that is awesome. It calls Argyll. There also is GUI interface for it called DISPCALGUI and one more, but I don't remember its name. It's on source forge.
It's the best and its free. Much better than OEM programs. It supports most colorimeters.
