If you don't have a compatible crankset, then you can currently get an SRAM Rival 22 crankset (3 bolt spider interface, with chainrings) for about $100, for a cost of $480 all-in. If you want carbon crank arms, then get an SRAM Force 22 crankset for about $230, or about $610 all-in.

It's much easier situation if you're on SRAM, that's for sure. For me, one I strongly dislike the aesthetics of SRAM cranksets other than RED, and two, one of my main bikes is BB90 so no 30mm compatibility. I also have a pretty strong preference towards Shimano everything for front shifting reliability.
Waiting for Shimano to get their act together and commoditize their crank-based power meters...
