I have a handful of devices which I like programming from - I use Eclipse Che (the tech behind Codenvy Beta, similar to Cloud9) for some of my projects and I have exactly the same environment on all of them.
There's other ways to accomplish this - sharing dotfiles between machines and using Docker for environments - but a cloud IDE makes it a bit easier and less hassle to set up.
