Whoops, thanks piwoslaw. I knew I should have checked before I posted.

Euromodder: I'd say it's better than nothing. Of course, can't beat proper instrumentation. For some users, it might be a "gateway drug" to a ScanGauge or equivalent.

Actually, I see Garmin does sell an OBD-2 compatible device as well.
