Summary: Be Prepared to Get Frustrated!
Comment: Instructions consist of ... load the software and follow the instructions. That's it! No explanations, no troubleshooting ... no nuttin!! After I finally got the software loaded (had to find updated drivers on their website for Vista), there were three options, none of which were intuitive. I opted for "Diagnostic" and that was wrong. I should have selected Match3. Then I was instructed to "press the button". There was no button anywhere. Turns out I was supposed to click an arrow at the top of the page.
Customer Service was responsive when I eventually got through to them, but their phone options were as confusing as their product instructions.
So far, my prints are way warmer than my monitor so I'll be contacting CS again tomorrow.
Be prepared to get very frustrated.

Summary: Pantone Eye-One Display 2
Comment: After checking various web sites, I found this item to be among the best and was not disappointed. Easy to use and more than lived up to the great things said about it. My 24" LCD looks great.

Summary: easy to use, obvious difference
Comment: Easy to use and the difference shows on my screen. Got this on the advice of a local, very good graphic artist who uses their products (much more expensive ones). I set it up to recalibrate every two weeks because screens change over short periods of time. I am happy with my purchase.

Summary: Easy and Useful
Comment: This little bippy has helped me get colors right for graphic and web design. It creates ICC profiles which can be loaded in on design programs.
One bummer: As of July 1, 2007 there doesn't seem to be a Windows Vista 64 bit driver.
