Colormunki vs. Spyder? (or others)

I have a new W520 and it doesn't have the integrated color calibrator. I am looking to buy a good quality calibrator to use on the W520 and my two panels in my office (TN panels, HP brand). I am not a professional photographer, but do want something that will calibrate the three displays to give me true color for the photos I do have. Not to mention that "warm and fuzzy" feeling knowing what I'm staring at is accurate.

Any recommendations that aren't $500+? Looking to spend under $200 for something decent and I'm not against used models on eBay.

Thanks.

 

I'm interested in this as well

 

I use i1 display pro.

By the way, I am selling a DTP94 colorimeter I got from the coloreyes display pro a few years ago.

 

I use a Colormunki Photo on all my LCDs and laptops. It's a very easy to use setup that takes only a couple minutes per screen once you've done it a few times. It's mostly automated so once you get the device on the right spot on the screen you can do something else while its running.

The most common complaint I read about when I was researching them was people complaining about the fact that it has to load the calibration on startup every time and that sometimes if it wasn't the last thing to load the calibration would be over written by something else. I've never had this problem on four laptops and a desktop but it is something that is possible.

I'm also not sure how well it would work with a system such as the many GPU switchers. Part of the calibration is loading .lut files into the graphics cards memory to get the correct brightness level. I'm not sure how that would work with multiple graphics cards that get switched between.
