The Pantone ColorVision Spyder (PhotoCal, OptiCal S/W) has a puck that comes with both suction cup and a little rubber foor designed for LCD use – a counterweight (provided) allows the pickup sensor to be suspended at the point where the target is displayed. It’s not an added expense, just comes with the unit if you need to use it with LCDs. With PhotoCal, the system runs about $150 and with OptiCal about $225 last time I checked (at Fry’s). Seemed to work just fine on my ViewSonic VX2000 20" LCD.
