Laptop or Pocket PC

1) If I have a laptop or a PocketPC, what do I need to connect to the RX8 computer?
2) Except from tuning, what else can you do? (i.e statistics, information, etc.) ?

You can easily read data/info from the OBD port, but you cannot simply "tune" the car like that....Visit Hymee's site for his ScanAnalyzer, which will enable your laptop to connect to the OBD and do all sorts of cool stuff

Fixed it for ya

Cool stuff as in calculating average fuel consumption, monitoring about 30 different data streams, viewing and reseting CELs etc etc...

And we are all eagerly awaiting for Hymee to release the PDA version of the software
