Your image will looked washed out/muted as the browser's color management tries to interpret color values outside it's sRGB gamut.

The answer really depends on your browser and if you include the profiles in your images. Safari for example will use an embedded color profile and Adobe RGB images will look just fine. Many browsers will simply assume images are in sRGB and your Adobe RGB images will look a little dark and muddy.

I picked up a huey last week because I was doing some printing and thought my monitor calibration was causing a problem. The huey worked great and now my monitor, prints and calibration prints from Millers all match. I bought the 'pro' upgrade online so I could calibrate a second monitor and then use both for editing. This is where things got really good because I had tried to match these two monitors many times using visual calibration utilities and they never matched. After using the huey both monitors match.
One quick note: When I first calibrated my laptop monitor it looked a little pink. I searched the web and posted questions to pantone asking what I was wrong. Just before returning the device, I bumped my screen and it tilted back towards me few degrees... and the color were perfect. I tried tilting it more towards me and things went a little blue. So, if you are working on a laptop make sure the screen is perpendicular to you line of site. This seems so obvious now, but it is important.
