Does 2490 american version support 220v?
The EyeOne D2 is the hardware device that comes with the SpectraView kit. It tends to be slightly better than than the Spyder.
No matter which HW device you use (EyeOne/Spyder) you definitely want to use the NEC software to calibrate the internal 12 bit LUTs of the monitor instead of other packages that calibrate the 8 bit LUTs on the graphics card.
If you start without a calibrator your best bet is to buy the whole package (montior+software+calibrator). It is the best deal.
If you already have an acceptable calibrator you definitely should prefer the SV software, but it is fairly expensive as a stand alone package.
Last time I called NEC, they told me at least 6 dead subpixels or something.. I don't really remember, but I think I had 5, and I ended up replacing it via Provantage instead.
I bought the NEC 2490WUXi this past week and it's my first ever LCD...is it normal for the boot up screen to have a different resolution then Windows itself?...my boot up screens show up as 1280 x 1024 while Windows boots up in its native 1920 x 1200 resolution...is this normal?
1280 x 1024 was my previous CRT resolution so I'm thinking something might be mixed up there
Performance
We tested the Planar PX2611w with its DVI connection. The display posted a composite score of 88 on CNET Labs' DisplayMate-based performance tests. We compared it with the 25.5-inch HP w2558hc, which scored an 88. The PX2611w scored well in most of our color tests, but really faltered in our two color ramp tests, which look for LCD's capability to render gradations of primary colors smoothly, uniformly, and consistently. In our test, the PX2611w wasn't able to show these gradations smoothly at all. On the black screen test, we saw clouding at the top right-hand corner and bottom left-hand corner of the screen.
The Planar PX2611w achieved a brightness score of 308 candelas per square meter (cd/m2)--much lower than Planar's claimed 400 cd/m2 max. The HP with its brightness of 387 cd/m2, came in significantly higher than the Planar.
Our Kill Bill Vol. 1 DVD ghosting test yielded noticeable ghosting on the Planar. We played the movie in the Planar's Movie preset and appreciated its deep blacks and its ability to achieve accurate and vibrant colors.
The prices just dipped on the 2490WUXi2.... it's down to just below $900 shipped at most places. Anyone have any ideas why this may have happened? Cheaper panels? Holidays?
anyone know how exactly to use preconfigured color profiles available on sites such as TFT Central?...where do I install them to and which one is best to use out of the 4 available for my 2490WUXI?...the hardware LUT one?...or do I just experiment with all of them to see which one looks best to me?

If you've got a 2490WUXi, leave it the hell alone. (seriously).
- leave black level at the default
after calibrating my 2490WUXi using the included SpectraView software/EyeOneDisplay 2 and saving all my settings will it still be saved within the monitor's hardware itself?...I'm a frequent reformater and I like to erase my hard drive and re-install everything often and was wondering if the recalibrated settings will be erased each time I do a reformat...hopefully not
apparently this monitor's allows calibration at a hardware level compared to saving it on a video card level...so I'm assuming that reformatting will not erase anything?

Yes, with the Spectraview software all the adjustments are saved in the monitor itself. When using colour manged applications you will still need the ICC profile generated by Spectraview and that is saved on the hard disk.

Set it to factory defaults everywhere. Following that, the most important things:
- set sRGB color
- leave ColorComp ON
- leave sharpness at the default (26.2% I think)
- leave contrast at the default
- leave black level at the default
- leave ColorComp ON, and set to 3, this is virtually as good as calibrated
- don't turn the brightness TOO low engaging lowbright mode unless you really need it - this starts to use pixel blocking and reduces accuracy.
- know how to get into the advanced OSD (hold pwr and input for several seconds on power up) - it's in the manual.
The 2490WUXi with Colorcomp on is already practically calibrated, tracks gamma almost perfectly, has "proper" sharpness settings out of the box (confirmed at lagom.nl). This is what you get when you buy a Pro-grade device.
All modes are "good". Choose what better suits your eyes.
N has somewhat higher contrast than sRGB.
