Sorry for butting in, but I'm curious. Though I have no problem calibrating my G4 PowerBook 
screen with Spyder3 Elite from Colorvision, I am wondering whether laptop screens have 
improved dramatically in the last 3 years. The problem with editing photos using a laptop 
screen is that the image becomes lighter/darker depending on the angle of view (how far 
open the cover is). So how can one get consistency in image editing?

I find the laptop essential while travelling and have edited images on it when needed and far 
from home and my main computer and screen, but I'm never sure exactly what I'm getting. Is 
your experience different?

cheers,
