Not sure if this is the right place for this question but couldn't see anywhere else.
Has anyone used a good monitor calibration device that will work across multiple computers and monitors.
I use 2 screens with my desktop and also have a laptop that all show different colours and brightness but I cannot get them to match up by just playing with the monitor settings.

Monitor calibration is the easiest part of the image capture, editing, and printing system to profile. The cost to do this ranges from free to expensive. If color accuracy and the ability to match your prints to your monitor are important to you, a decent hardware calibration system is essential. With a little work you can get good color from your monitor. If digital photography is your business, or you simply want the best colors you can get, the expense of a high quality calibration system is more than justified.

I use an Eye-one display 2, you would have to install the software on all your computers.
