Lawrence,

I have a Lacie22blueIII and was thinking about buying a spyder to calibrate
it.  Do I understand you correctly - I need not spend the big bucks on the
blueeye?  I can use someone elses puck and the Lacie software (comes on the
CD with the monitor, right?).  This sounds like a real savings.  Hope this
thread is not getting off topic.  However, I do use my Lacie22blue for my
B&W work and would like to have it calibrated as accurately as possible.
Thanks
