Tim,

I'm replying off list and note that what you say is not correct.  The
MDSVSensor can only be used on wide-gamut displays.  There is no way for a
user to switch and trying to calibrate a normal monitor will give strange
results.

As I understand it, it has a calibration mode for normal LCD monitors 
too.  What it doesn't have is a mode for CRT screens.  I thought I read 
the i1 has two modes, one for LCDs and one for CRTs.  NEC replaced the 
CRT mode with one for wide gamut LCD monitors.

Don't quote me on that though.  I forget where I read it and what 
exactly I mean by 'mode'.
