After I had this discovered I profiled the device again - same result. My next
attempt was with the included Eye-One Display2 and Eye-One Match V3.6.1 Software.
In this profile the gamut of the display quite nicely covers AdobeRGB. Is it
possible that the differences in gamut between these profiles indicates that
the Spyder2Pro device/software combo has some problems with LED backlight displays?
Comparing the Spyder2 to EyeOne Display and guessing which is closer based on which you hope is correct isn't really a scientific approach. When we compare various retail monitor calibrators to laboratory bench colorimeters (devices that cost about as much as a car; not in the end user price range) the Spyder comes out about as accurate as the others. The point if greatest variability (in all of them) is the green, which is not surprising, given that the green in AdobeRGB is the most saturateed primary, outside of ICC Lab space, in fact. If its any consolation, these are greens so intense you eye can't really distinguish them either...
