I mostly have 3W GU10s from Ryness, bought in their shops, but they also have a web site http://www.ryness.co.uk/
I'm also impressed with a 5W GU10 bought from TLC http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/
Less impressed with the service from Initial Lights.

Yes, as long as you don't turn on any low colour temperature bulbs as well, then the cool white
LEDs are really good to work under, read and illuminate artworks. I like their directionality.
If you take time to set them up then one person can read in a pool of white light while the person
next to them on the sofa can view video in an essentially dark room.
