It wouldn't be a matter of exporting, we actually build it on the Mac or PC, and export it to the iPad. But its not a standard ICC profile, since there is no standard color management under iOS. So that profile would not be usable on the Mac or PC in the ways you are thinking of using it� I can see the value of having a profile on the computer so that you can batch process images and send them to the iPad, but thats not how we are currently doing it...

There is more variation between the screens in iOS devices than I would like to see, though less than with some lines of monitors or laptops. Enough that a custom, rather than a canned profile, is of value.
