I just picked up a set of Williams System 30 carbon tubulars (24-spoke) with a PowerTap G3 a couple of months ago. So far, so good.
I did a comparison of all the pros and cons of various power meters, and the hub-based was easiest for me since I didn't have to change cranks or anything like that. The pedal-based power meters are not quite as convenient as they would seem from what I hear - a pain to set up, and restricted to certain cleat types, not to mention the Garmin Vector were the same price as my complete wheelset with the PowerTap hub. I might actually buy another PT and have a second wheel rebuilt with it, not sure yet. I've only just begun exploring training with a power meter.
