Fred - Good info, thanks much! What I objected to on the 820 with glossy paper was a too warm look - reddish. So I might actually like the blue.
I have a supply of Double sided matte - and some premium glossy.. Haven't tried the enhanced matte yet. I'd love something that was close in look to Illford pearl.
