If you want wireless OBD Interface even with an APPLE iphone or iPod you have to spend and ADDITIONAL $200 US approx for the Wi-FI OBD Module..

http://www.obdkey.com/obd_orders.asp? states that the OBD + wireless is 169 euro . Roughly double the price of the bluetooth version at 82 euro. I think we are saying the same thing. Dont understand the point. If you have an iPhone its the only option.

And you pay double the price for WiFi, not an additional $200. No pun intended but apples for apples.

169 Euro = $237 US...

Forget it Andrew, you originally made the comment that for a REV all it costs was $40 if you had Apple..

I said if you want Wireless for Apple you need to spend a further $200 Approx US for the WI-Fi OBD port module, so it is more than just a $40 expense.

Yes, we know that Bluetooth is not compatible with the Apple i-.

Over and out.

This just arrived in the mail, plugged in it, paired it with my android based HTC Hero, launched Torque application, set the device as the one to connect to, and within seconds had my ECU data feed.

Worked perfectly. Will test the Torque logging features and such next time I go driving, but the OBDKey itself worked like a charm. Well worth the $138 it cost me (exchange rates are slowly shifting, and in a direction that favors us.) Took about a week to arrive from the UK.
