Default Monitor calibration - Which one?

I have the monitor calibrator called Colorvision Spyder 3. I have a mac and two PCs. I have used Spyder 3 for a while and I have noticed that the colors are different on all three screens. I assume the purpose of a monitor calibrator is that the photographer sees the same colors his/her clients will see...Anyway.
I have decided to get a new calibrator. I don't want to spend a lot of money on it. My budget is 150-400.
What monitor calibrator can you recommend. I do wedding photography and I shoot a lot of Indian weddings where true colors are essential.

Thanks!

A friend of mine claims his new Pantone Eye-One Display 2 is better than his Spyder 3.

I have, use and like my color munki.

The software might be a bit too simplistic - but it's fine for dual displays, multiple pc's, digital projectors and printers. My main, work and wife's display are all very very close to eachother. I'm getting very good printing results.
