From what I've read, they're more accurate because you're not dealing with tire inflation variances and for some you don't need to do a "spindown" (the calibration setup). You also don't have to buy a trainer tire. It might even be quicker to take your bike off and on for outdoor riding because you don't have to switch tires, just pop your tire back on.
The downside is cost. You're paying almost twice as much as the wheel on.
