Digital BW, The Print

As we say down South, Epson may end up with a pig in a poke over this 
2100/2200 gray balancer. Epson USA through their consultants are telling 
us the GB is the "software from hell." Yet on other forums people in the 
US that have used it are saying it's not that hard to understand and it 
is a nice feature to have. As long as these reports keep coming - and I 
suspect they will for awhile - the fans will be kept flamed and people 
will want it and be torked off that it doesn't come with the 2200.

Quite frankly Epson seems to have steeped in it on this issue and IMO 
they deserve all the aggravation and negative publicity. There seem 
ready to string Epson up over at Dpreview.
