Depending on when and where you bought it, you may be able to get a refund from them or from your credit card company.

Oh yes, I should have made that clear. I'm hoping that they will update it with a review of the new Spyder 4, but no luck so far. I haven't found any other quality comparisons either.

Does anybody know good 3rd party software for Windows? I have the Express but have upgraded to dual monitors and it only supports one with the low end software.

Deal is dead. Just tried to buy it and the price went up to $150. Pity because it was $130 an hour ago when I was thinking about so it's a no go for me now.

Will I be able to use this to calibrate my LCD TV that is not connected to a PC? If not, are there any low cost solutions out there to calibrate TVs?

I bought the Spyder4Elite for my work. The Art department loved it. For me, I actually preferred the uncalibrated view. The calibration made it quite a bit colder and I like my monitor to be on...

Yeah I sit corrected more or less, one of the seller turns out to be macmall, and the other is no longer showing so I'm guessing it was sold.

Is the dispcalgui difficult to use? I see that is is based on the Argyll CMS engine.
