Had a look at the Crees at Home Depot last night. They had the warm and the cool lit up. Can't say I liked either; just didn't look right. It's Phillips for me, at least for the office where it's critical.

(Though I should qualify this statement by saying: a couple of years ago, my local WallyWorld was clearing out second-gen "Lights of America" LED bulbs. Warm and cold, 2W to 13W, multiple form factors, at $2.00 apiece. Naturally, I got a cart and cleaned them out. So I'm good for utility LEDs for quite a while. I'm even hacking some to find out what the direct DC operating voltage is. I have solar panels looking for gainful employment ... )

Anybody close to an Ikea? They have gone into LEDs in a serious way. They've dropped down their price to $9.99 for the 800 lumen LED bulbs (2700K if I remember). None lit up, so I can't comment on colour. Two versions, one frosted and the other with a curious diffuser lens arrangement. They also have a $35 3-LED tracklight setup, 12W, chrome/stainless finish, that would look pretty darn good in any room. Hmm.
