That's a neat creative device, but it is pretty expensive. You can get a decent Bluetooth headset for a 1/4 of that price and the best part is you can use it away from the car.

I bought an inexpensive OBD/Bluetooth thingy from China - think I found it on EBay. Cost about $50. Haven't tried it with the android apps yet, but I was using it when I was building my own disgnostics app for Windows Mobile. It worked fine from what I could tell.

As long as it monitors the same parameters that I could get on my scan gauge 2 I will be happy. I am really excited to try out the data logging.. To bring out the inner nerd in me. I'm using a droid pro with android 2.2 I hope everything is compatible.

I love the data logging feature. The torque interface is intuitive to use. I like that you can view the log in google earth for a detailed layout of location and speed.
