I like the look of the pedal even without the strap if necessary, and I really like the idea of being able to eject fast and easy while still having a positive attachment to the pedal. If anyone here has tried them and has serious negative experience I'd like to hear about it, but I'm probably buying within a day or so. I'll leave a review here after I've used them for a bit.
@kingston: the origin8's look kind of cool; thanks for the link. Amazing how many different pedals there are out there; hard to imagine there's a need for that much variation in the market, but hey. . .
