I'm still not sure if I feel the need greatly enough to invest in one, but this looks like a very nice solution. They offer a LiveCD which you can use to just create an icc file which you can save to media or they have a free pastebin-like site that you can post them to for a week to retrieve after you reboot into your main OS. That means you can trivially use this solution on numerous computers without installing drivers/etc or worrying about compatibility. I'm sure getting it working natively on Gentoo wouldn't be a big deal either. For $100 it doesn't seem like a bad deal. It does look like you have to take care of the import side yourself (I've never actually done that which is ironic since I've spent the last two years working on a system for automating corporate import declarations - I imagine the courier will handle it for a fee - I doubt the duties are much). I guess they don't just do what all the cheap Amazon vendors do and stamp "gift" on the outside of the package. -- Rich
