Description
In response to lordquibble's review: The ability to compare any two arbitrary colors has never been removed from the application. The icon (scales) simply moved from the detail view to the list view. This was noted in the release notes when the change occurred.

Customer Reviews
I squeealed with delight
This is the coolist thing I have seen for the iPhone thus far I bought it and downloaded it imeadiatly of course it only makes sense if you do theatre lighting but if you do it bodes well for the future of the iPhone in this field. Now if only apple would allow us to turn off the cell with out putting the phone in to airplane mode so that the wifi could still be used for DMX over wifi and other show control with out the sound guy getting all bent out of shape we might be on to something really cool. Oh yeah and the app performed as expected and should come in real handy.
SO close to perfect
I find this app quite useful. The ability to see colors both similar and complementary to the selected color is great, and the full set of info on each color is appreciated. I am somewhat irritated by the order in which the Rosco colors appear (R111 appears after R11, R3405 appears after R34, none of the 300 series appears after their associated primary colors). Were it not for that ordering issue, I would have given a full 5 stars. I have 2 suggestions, both of which I would gladly pay considerably more for. First, add the ability to see a comparison of each color with a 3200 source and a 5600 source. Second, add the Vari*Lite colors to the selection.
Not worth $10
While this app is useful, I was dissapointed by the limited selection of gel companies (no Apollo). I was also disappointed by the lack of convienent browsing features such as a color wheel or grid.
