remember.... calibration systems is not like cameras.... people do not usually buy a few different models and try out and see which one better... neither do people buy a few to profile their PC. Generally speaking, if you are on budget get a colorvision spyder/spyder 2. otherwise go for monaco or gretag macbeth....

it really depends on YOUR needs. I bought the spyder 2 pro cuz I want to calibrate my projector as well.

If I only want to calibrate my screen, I will just get the cheapest spyder lor.

As the price of spyder 2 & Xrite optirx abt the same, which's better?

While I can't tell you which is the best, I do strongly suggest you avoid the "Huey". It's cheap, yes, but it's very "limited".

And they sell high price somemore. Now at EastGear the price is $160. Same as MO price few weeks ago.

I wonder how much is MO for huey now (if there is MO for it again)
