As you can see from the message below this one, I'm finally upgrading 
from Spyder 2 to Spyder 3. In Spyder 2 there's a nice feature 
called "colorimeter" in the Tools section. That was very helpful in 
standardizing the brightness of my LCD monitor. I'm sure the Spyder 3 
has a similar feature, but I haven't been able to find it. Where is it 
located?

The replacement for Spyder2Pro is Spyder3Elite; both have the  
coloimeter feature you describe. However, the replacement for the  
midline Spyder2 product is now called Spyder3Pro. This causes some  
confusion, but is really the fault of Pantone, who started this  
degradation of the meaning of Pro when they named a midline product  
HueyPro.

So it sounds like you have the midline product, and are looking for  
highend features in it. Sorry for the confusion. There is an upgrade  
available if you own S3Pro and actually need Elite.

CD,

Can you let me have details of the upgrade?  I've got an S3Pro, and am thinking about upgrading for the greater flexibility.

Thanks

You would need to contact our Support staff at our website, and  
request the upgrade info. They can let you know what it costs and how  
it works in whatever country you live in. I don't have that info, as  
sales are not my area...
