I'm really loooking forward to the CMYK support. I do a lot of work for offset printers, and it will be wonderful to get accurate colors on the screen.

I am really excited about this. I love the Colourlovers.com site, and being able to pull the schemes directly from there would be great!

I am really excited for the "Transform a single color into a complete color scheme" tool, I cant believe tuaw actually has licenses that they are giving away! This has to be the best prize that a designer can ask for!

CYMK as stated before is a biggie, but I was most dazzled by the GalleryBrowser feature.... what flexibility this offers!

I am most excited for the GalleryBrowser feature. The ability to "browse (and grab from) over a million palettes from COLOURlovers.com, right in the app" will save so much time and reduce the number of apps I need to find the right color!
