Build-in color reader is convenient. However, I have (use right at this moment) ColorEdge CE240W for 6 years now. Nice monitor, just started yellow-band while warming up. Color calibration features where nice while lasted. Within a couple month of the end of warranty EIZO told me, that they will not port their software to support OS X 10.8 for this monitor. Their solution - buy another solution. So I bought another calibrator with software.
A combination of Dell with XRite will give me same or better future value. I do not see anymore, why pay for EIZO except for \"cool\" gimmicks. As far as convenience goes (USB, OSD menu, etc.) Dell beats EIZO hands down. By the way, individual factory calibration matters until the first time you calibrate yourself.
