Interbike: MetriGear Vector power meter Can't Post

At first glance, this thing looks amazing – power meter integrated into the axles of Speedplay pedals. Sounds like both pedals so you could theortically get power readings for each leg independently? I wonder if you could apply this to other pedal technologies too?

Right now it is vaporware as they just had some prototypes at the show. Their target date of release was Q1 2010 which usually means summer at the earliest.

Although I've got a powertap wheel, I've got speedplays on both my road and tri bikes, so I am definitely watching intently for the release of this product.

Until it is available for sale it is still vaporware to consumers. It's better that they test it thoroughly instead of releasing a substandard product and watching the excitement fizzle though.
