As a Rotor 2Inpower PM user, I have been waiting for this app and really happy to see it released today:
http://rotorbike.com/app-rotor-power/
I'm looking forward to the ability to do post-ride analysis of power delivery and optimal positioning of my Q-rings. The desktop app allows me to do this while riding on the trainer, but I would prefer to see what's going on real-life in the field rather than working against the resistance imposed artificially by my trainer.
On a side note, even if the app and data are mumbo jumbo, so far I have been very impressed with the Rotor 2Inpower PM. While I won't claim to have conducted the type of advanced accuracy analysis that is expected in DCR's upcoming review (recently he said it would publish sometime in April), I have found no dropouts, weird cadence spikes, abnormal power values or anything like that. I have been doing a good amount of interval work in ERG mode on the NEO and find that my average power for these intervals (typically anywhere between 5-30 minutes) tracks within a watt or two of the power reported by the NEO (typically at wattages of 240-280W, so within one percentage point; more often than not, the reported output between the two is exactly the same down to the watt). The magnetic charge cord (like a Macbook) is beyond cool and makes keeping the PM charged almost a pleasure. I've had a number of PMs in the past - Powertap (including the Pilot Program unit), SRM, Quarq and Pioneer - and while most have been very very good to outstanding, this one so far is my favorite. In fairness, I also have a P2Max NG but I have not ridden it yet (it's on my CX/backup road bike). With the accuracy I (think I) am seeing with the 2Inpower though, it's hard for me to see how there could be any improvement. Finally, I have no sponsorship or other interest in the 2Inpower or any other PM, just sharing my thoughts on what I think is a very very good, perhaps under the radar, PM.
