Carl,

The samples they sent me on Photorag look really great. Five warm to cool
versions of the same 6x8 image of a rose on the same strip of paper. Same
shot as on their website. Nice delicate tones and a good range of hues. Hard
to tell without running it yourself and looking at some test wedges but they
really seem to have nailed the profiles seamlessly from hue to hue. No info
on the 2200 version release date or the Mac side.
