I bought a new Dell (it's enroute), with a Hi Resolution, glossy widescreen 17.0 inch display (1920x1200) and wanted some advice on what would be best to use for calibrating the screen, Spyder3, EyeOne, etc. I'll be using it almost exclusively for photo editing and website updates and it's important that what I see on the screen is what is printed. Any suggestions given there's so many calibration tools out there.

I use a Spyder with my MacBook Pro w/glossy display and it works fine. Just remember, you really should not go too extreme with calibrating a laptop as non really have that great of a color profile to begin with. The only reason to splurge for pro versions is if you'll have a quality secondary monitor. The MBPs supposetly have one of the better laptop monitors and I still won't rely on what I see on it for production work.
