    this question is directed at those who have tried to calibrate their IPS FlexView screen or have knowledge of the workings of color profiles:

    so I purchased an EyeOne Display2 calibrator, and created a custom profile for my FlexView screen; comparing against some of the tests on this site, I was able to greatly improve the black level, among other things-- however, I noticed that when viewing images in PS or in Firefox with color management enabled, all shades of blue appeared to be more purple; for example, the background on MSN.com appears purple instead of cyan; interestingly, the same effect applies when using the Lenovo-supplied ICC profile for the FlexView screen; I'm curious to hear from others who have tried to calibrate their FlexView screens or worked with various profiles about their experience in color-managed applications.

    I realize that this topic is better suited to a digital photography/imaging forum, however, I figured that since this particular panel is unique to the ThinkPad, I would try to collect some responses here.

    Thanks for any insight.
