    I'll give another thumbs up for the Huey. At this price, nobody has any excuses not to calibrate their monitor.

    A note of warning. I have been really displeased with Amazon's shipping policy of late. I ordered some (in stock) books and they did not ship for 6 days and they are supposed to take 12 days to arrive to Florida.

    Overstock had the same books and they were 5% less with $1.40 shipping.

    This item is being sold by and outside linked vendor, so YMMV, but B&H does an excellent job of getting stuff to me and I have to say, very reliable.

    I've seen mixed reviews on the Huey and read that calibrating a trinitron monitor is tricky-er. Given that I have a Trinitron which I have the temp set at 9300 (9300 didn't seem to be an option in a Huey tut I found) is the Huey still a good choice or should I opt for his bigger brother? I'm looking for longer term and don't want to get my mouth wet and find out I need to upgrade.

    d'oh! I just bought one today from them for $80.

    I wonder if I called and told them about the coupon if they'd knock the price down.

    edit: d'oh (again)! They're closed now. Guess I'll have to try back later and hope for the best.
