The lack of a luminance adjustment hasn't mattered to me, and I wonder if I'm better off without it. I do the color calibration with the Spyder 2 Express, and adjust luminance so that I achieve a correct print when the luminance appears to be right on my monitor. The Spyder software does include a grayscale that at least gets you in the ballpark, and I found that the default luminance on an IMac 27 was also close to correct. I believe I'm just a little bit less bright than the default setting, and I'm just right for printing and apparently fine for web display as well.
