If ya wanna come over in Fremont and check it out for yourself, just lemme know...

The software will work as long the Bluetooth OBD II device will spit out data. So its more of making sure the eBay device works...

Have you guys used trackmaster apps? I have been using both for over two years. Torque was just updated again. But its one of the best apps i have used. I have the pdx or what ever bluetooth obdii that i picked up at frys in concord. At the track its great. On the road in my truck it works great too for tracking gas milage.

Kinda late for this, but Amazon had the PLX Kiwi OBDII adapter as one of their lightning deals today (it was $15 off). Finally decided to purchase one. Looking forward to using it with Torque on my Droid X...
