I received my HP 2065 monitor and have calibrated it using my Spyder 
2. The initial results aren't too encouraging. 

Images, previously edited in PS CS3 looked "perfect" on my old 
profiled CRT monitor. On LCD, profiled with Spyder, those same 
images look too bright by about 5-10%, and are too blue by about 
15%. That is, if I could get a monitor profile which allowed edited 
images to appear a little less blue and a little less bright (less 
luminance) then I think I'd be getting very close to what I need.

First question - Does anyone have advice on how this might be 
achieved, using the Spyder 2?

Second question - how do those of you who profile LCDs using the 
Spyder 2, hold the calibrating instrument in place during 
calibration? I just sat there and held it manually, but I wonder if 
there isn't an easier way.

Someone is going to ask what type of LCD panel this monitor has. 
Unfortunately I can't be certain. The web site flatpanels.dk states 
that it has either an S-IPS panel or an S-MVA (not S-PVA) panel. HP, 
who makes the monitor, doesn't state in their specs what type of 
panel their monitors have. Before ordering, I phoned several places 
in HP, asking for assurance that I get an S-IPS panel. Nobody would 
assure me of anything - all the people I talked to claimed they 
didn't know the panel types, and could not refer me to anyone who 
could tell me which panels are used.

Any help at all on the two questions above would be much 
appreciated. Thanks in advance.
