I agree completely.
Using a reliable hardware colorimeter and good calibration software
is far more consistent and produces easily repeatable results
compared to nearly any calibration by eye.
I use the Gretag-Macbeth Eye One Display, which I bought on the
advice of folks who designed Apple's ColorSync technology. That was
about a year or so ago ... the quality and the price of good units
has improved since then, and the number of different offerings in the
market have increased as well.
