    I have been looking and have not found many comments on the new version yet. I will post a link here if I find some interesting reviews.

    I saw it demonstrated recently. From what I can tell, and I might have missed something, it's directed mostly at print applications. You select you output device and then paint on the sharpener in the areas you want sharpened as a last step just before printing. Works the same way the nik Color Pro 2.0 filters do.

    I just downloaded it. I'll play with it and report out. By the way it does have a special monitor viewing sharpening feature.

    Echoes of PixelGenius PK Sharpener??? That's the one that I use, paint on the type of sharpening I desire and it too has output sharpening types, ie web, print, etc.

    I have the old 1.03 version of nik SharpenerPro! Inkjet Editon. I use it all the time (works fine in Tiger and PS CS2). I am ordering the 2.0 Complete version this week.

    Will report back when I receive it.

    I'm sorry to say that I am not impressed with nik sharpener 2.0 at all. :( It sharpens everything to much, including any noise that is in the image.

    Back to the drawing board. :roll:
