    my latest gadget, Kiwi Blutooth

    So my latest toy showed up last night.

    http://www.plxkiwi.com/kiwibluetooth/hardware.html

    It connects to the ODBII connector under my seat and by bluetooth to my Droid X.

    I looked at some of the many apps that can connect and settled on this one.

    Is anyone else using something like this?

    why would you need this.
    just to have another gadget?

    -used free version of "torque" for a boost gauge. it worked.

    -if you have an VW/Audi, the emulator an be found for <$30. my triumph uses the same cable, patiently awaiting TuneECU app...or a phone with the power to operate the software.

    I have been looking at somehting similar.
    My car can work with an app to show turbo boost, intake temp, etc. etc. I figured it would be a good way top know what's going on every time I perform any kind of upgrade.

    And it's a cook gadget.
