i wish could give you an answer.
i wish i had one.
i keep thinking i should get a power meter, although i'd prefer to get an SRM.
the thing is, i should be blowing that kind of cash on my work, not my toys.
now that i've got that off my chest, i'll just point out the fact that you're a brand spanking new cat 4 with a wife and a coach.
that means that you're too old to be a pro, but have the cash and interest in going as far as you can with riding.
my first instinct tells me to suggest passing on the power tap. this forum already has far too many newbies with more toys than ability.
that said (or typed as the case may be), if you've got the cash, and the time to commit to getting the most out of the PT, i'd say go for it.
that is all.
