Well done Hymee, the intellectual effort people like you are putting into the RX8 make me glad I bought the car. Count on me for support when your product is ready!

Update
First North American Test: SUCESS!
Yesterday I was able to do some testing of the prototype scan tool offering that sco and I are partnering to provide under the HymeeEnhanced brand.
I connected to "rxeighter"s Winning Blue RX-8 fired up the software, fired up the engine. The digital dahsboard with way cool gauges sprang into life. Wend for a drive and could see how well the RX-8 maintains ideal AFR in "closed-loop", and how pig rich it was running at "WOT" / open-loop conditions.
Could also read the VIN of the car, and the CalID of his car. We confirmed it was indeed an "M" flash.
The "Alabama Slammer" was mightly impressed.
I've got some pics etc I'll post in due course.
Cheers,
Hymee.

That is KISS *** 
I will take one.
Is there a chance for oil and water temp measured?
Is the one you tested in US is in PC notebook? I have a Sony Palm OS 5 system. Is that on your developer's card?
More importantly, how do we use this information?

Water temp is definitely possible - the top left dial in the picture Hymee posted is the current coolant temperature. There is no feed from the engine computer for oil temperature (that we know of). I'm looking into other options for that - possibly an extra sensor you can fit to your car and plug into your computer.

Fantastic Hymee, put me down for one! Being able to flash my own '8' would be great as the only Mazda dealer in Darwin seems to be incapable/unwilling.
Keep up the good work.

Hymee,
This looks great (just like my Hymee-Enhanced exhaust does, but in software). You say a PPC with serial connect, but lots of PPC varients have "unique" connectors. I wold love to add this new function to my wonderfully fleible XDA (Mobile + PDA) but would you have a cable/adaptor to suit this?

I tested the CAN tool on a European SP (mine!) and it worked fine. The functionnalities were beyond my expectencies for a prototype software! Well done Hymee and SCO.
I'm meeting some other EU owners next Sunday. Will test my unit on HPs.
