Most accept the computrainer left/right balance that appears at the rear wheel?
That, too, would be "pseudo-balance" (same for what the Quarq provides).

assuming pedal sensors are duplicates of each other then they too could be psuedo left/ right balance as well?
Dual-sided power meters (e.g., Rotor, Garmin, Verve...and now PowerTap pedals?) enable determination of true left-right balance.

anyhow all in all this looks like a nice thing from power tap and I look forward to seeing what it looks like and costs and can do.
Speaking of costs, balance, etc., I suspect that PowerTap's hierarchy will be:
1) hub-based power measurement, for those on a budget;
2) crank-based power measurement, for those who want to use their own wheels; and
3) pedal-based power measurement, for those interested in a deeper understanding of how they pedal (and/or are unwilling to replace their present wheels or crank for some reason...similarly, the crank-based product is an option for those who aren't, e.g., willing to give up their Speedplay pedals).
