I like the look of these:
http://www.bikeradar.com/news/article/interbike-new-vector-power-meter-from-metrigear-23513if the write ups true they'll be lighter, simpler, cheaper and just as accurate as the other systems out on the market. Way easier to use on multiple bikes too. Not sure what the trackies opinion of speedplay pedals is though, they do a track model which is interesting but most people seem to use the old shimano pedals.

Scherrit is nearly finished with my old PT conversion to fixed.. should be a laugh..
He mentioned that Saris had just come out with or just suggested they were going to come out with a conversion (correct me if I'm wrong) for their new style hubs (like the one above). I wonder if this is what he was talking about?
I want to hear about people using the new setups. If they are any good, it would give me an excuse to shuffle down the PTs since these ones are better sealed, hence more suitable, for a commuter.

Speedplay is a fucking ace system.
Fantastic idea but until this system becomes compatible with a mainstream pedal system it will be little more than a curiosity.
When they get it to wourk with Shimano, look & time pedals then it will be successful but who the heck uses speedplay (or even wants to?).

Garmin bought Metrigear yesterday; pedal based power meters with all the analysis of a Wattbike are on the way...

Scherrit has a track powertap type hub

Hippy
Why have you got a lookalike for BRM in your post?
-
i thought they were going to be made for speedplay pedals, or is that effectively just a shim that goes between any pedal and the crank?

bollocks based around look keo pedals

Garmin inhaled Metrigear or something. They were the ones that were talking about bringing this out in '09.. up there ^^

Uses the White Industries splined cog system. Tidy.
They can convert an old powertap for $500 if $1600 for whole systemis a bit steep :D
