Any way to dim Alu iMac display even more?

I got an Alu 24" iMac at work and it is lovely (everybody that comes by my office is in awe), but man is it bright! I like to work in a somewhat low light office, and the iMac's display blows me away even on the lowest brightness setting. I have calibrated it to reduce the brightness somewhat, but it is still overwhelming. Is there some 3rd party utility that will dim it some more?

Perfect! This was just what I was looking for. Great find -- I even set it up using FunctionFlip so that I can have it work with the same keyboard shortcuts that is standard for adjusting brightness.
