Thanks to some wonderfully helpful threads on this forum, I was made aware of the amazing calibration tool dispcalGUI. I have an i1Display2 that I'm using with the Argyll drivers and dispcalGUI. I'm curious for those out there who may have used this software with their W520, what did you select in the Settings for the calibration (target) profile? I selected "laptop," but I'm wondering if perhaps "Office & Web" would be better? I do photo editing with PS, LR, etc. and use the W520 as a secondary monitor-- my primary is a beautiful NEC 2490 calibrated via Spectraview. There is a "photo" setting, but the whitepoint defaults to 5000K, and it seems 6500K would be more appropriate to my workflow.

Anyway, I'm just curious if others have used the software, and what settings they've tended to use for their own purposes.

After doing some further research, for anyone who might be interested, the following thread is immensely helpful: http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/2983567?page=3

Using my i1display 2 with the dispcalgui software, the W520 panel is actually usable with respect to color; the built-in calibration tool/software is horrendous, but the panel itself is not so bad when properly calibrated; I'm honestly astonished at the result when comparing against my NEC monitor.
