I think I’m ready to replace my aging ViewSonic PF775 with something a bit more suited to photo work. At the same time, I’d like to take some real steps toward color management. I’m wondering what the wise ones among you think of the following:

For the monitor, I thought I’d go with a 19" Mitsubishi 930SB. It seems to have a great reputation for both high performance and reasonable pricing. For profiling, I’d already settled on a GretagMacbeth EyeOne Display, but I noticed that Mitsubishi offers its own proprietary "SpectraView" system as an option on the 930SB. I couldn’t dig up much information on SpectraView; can anyone comment on it? If it’s more capable than the EyeOne Display, at least when dealing with the 930SB, it might be attractive; if it’s only on par, the EOD would have an edge for its usefulness beyond the life of the monitor and for secondary displays.

Also, the EOD2 came out recently with claims of improved performance. Does it deliver over the EOD1?
