I would whore myself out for an OBD-II dongle and app! (Did I say that out
loud?)

Remember "If the card was some sort of dual standard card". If you found
one of those, then it is just work. I've seen some pretty amazing stuff
come out of this group despite the nay-sayers. Go for it.

I remember a while ago someone grafted an Analog Devices 2 axis
accelerometer to a Palm Pilot and came up with a labyrinth game that uses
tilt to move the ball. That would be cool.

An OBD-II dongle and application would be easy using ELMs chips.

Anyway, just thinking out loud.
