ACD Calibration - HELP!

[appletothecore]

I have two Apple Cinema displays for my rig, and I need to calibrate them. The local shop carries X Rite and Spyder. Any preference or reason to get one over the other? Someone there said they all do the same job. Do you get what you pay for? Thank you so much in advance!

UPDATE: I will be using this mostly for Photoshop editing.

I use the Spyder Pro with Optical and it works good.

I have an xrite densitometer product for our large format inkjet: it is excellent.

I would get the more costly one and make sure it is the newest version out and not an older version that has been sitting on the shelf: this is important as newer ones are more suited towards LCD's in both software and the attachment puck.

You do get what you pay for in this arena.
