Existing users, 
I've been using Shades for a while, and like it a lot. But when I made a screen profile resently (with Color Eyes Display Pro) I noticed that changing profiles in Screen Preferences acted strange. I then turned Shades off, and the newly made profile made the screen turn green!
I made a new profile with Shades turned off, and things work now.
So if you don't care about profiling your screen, then Shades is very nice. But if you calibrate your screen, then I think it's a no good, at least for the time being.
