Yes. It's very similar to the Spectrolino in that regard, although I
don't know of them offering D65 or Polarized versions.

Yes. I imagine this may well have been a cost constraint (EEProm size,
calibration time), as well as positioning against the more expensive
Spectrolino, which (I think) overlapped the initial availability of the
i1pro. With the absorption into X-Rite, something like the eXact fills
the role of a more accurate & flexible instrument now.
