True. My only interest is whether the 2708 might have a higher resolution than 1920x1200. My 2407 has the same resolution, so I wouldn't gain any screen "real estate" by jumping to the 2707. Still, that price for a 3007WFP-HC is awfully tempting.I know what you mean, but anything newer will be more money.
Not unexpected. The cheap Huey got a so-so review here: http://www.behardware.com/articles/626-7/monitor-calibration-for-0-to-100.htmlWell, I finally calibrated my 2407 and I think it looked a helluva lot better BEFORE calibration. The calibrated profile seems dull and washed out compared to how my LCD looks in its original state. I ran the Huey on my MBP's screen, too. Same result as with my 2407. FWIW, I'm not going to let all the calibration talk influence my next LCD purchase.

Very simple: I wanted to see for myself what the debate was all about. In case you hadn't noticed, there are several threads dealing with calibration, IPS vs. S-PVA, 3007WFP vs. 305T, etc.If you're not doing photographic or color production work... why even bother to calibrate? Even though the Huey is low end, it does get you to a proper color calibration, which is dull and washed out as you put it. That's what real colors look like in ie..in your photographs. And depending on the program you use, you need to set the correct profile and color space to actually see the corrected calibrated colors. It's a little involved hence.. if you're not doing color reproduction work... why bother?
I'd avoid any online seller who didn't sell 3007s that are "sealed, never opened, in the box with full 3 year Dell warranty."Anybody have experience ordering from this place on eBay selling it for $950 shipped?

Yeah, it was cheap, but I got a general idea of what calibration is and isn't. I sure as hell wasn't going to invest a few hundred $$ in a device I'd use once or twice.Not unexpected.

And it is mentioned in this LCD thread by xtknight, "...the Huey Pro which is really just a beginner's colorimeter. "

Like LCD screens, it seems with H/W calibrators and their software, you get what you pay for.
I want one actually, but i refuse to pay Dells Canadian rip off price of $1600. It hasn't seen a sale up here in ages.
how about listing some for sale here on the forum so you can save on ebay fees and pass the savings on to uswe have the 3007WFP-HC's on my ebay store for $900+shipping. Excess inventory from a large fortune 500 banking client that switched vendors.
This auction lists new, sealed 3007WFP-HC LCDs. Only 5 left, though.So this is you?
