The light meter in the latest models of cameras are pretty good, and with the image review options available (histogram et al), I don't think that external light meters are required. I personally don't use them anymore, in any case...
I have the Ikelite digital UW light meter and a housed D200 (yes, the 4 channel histogram is very cool for judging exposure).
I think, there are a couple of reasons to keep it.
-flash calibration (or just checking the output of your flash units)
-ambient light meter (sanity check for tricky wide-angle situations)
Take Care,
