Newegg has the ELM327 Bluetooth OBD2 Diagnostic Scan Tool for $12 with free shipping. Works with all OBD II compliant cars 1996 and newer, reads and clears diagnostic trouble codes, and can turn off the Check Engine light.
$12
Works great with the "Torque" App for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torque
(There is also a free version to try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.prowl.torquefree)

I've got one of these plus the full version of torque, and it's a pretty nice setup. Couldn't communicate with a 2004 Kia Optima, though.
It it is like the one i got 1.5 years ago (looks the same) then it came with some software for a BT enabled PC's (maybe Linux/OSX but I'm not sure). I also got it to work with my wife's jailbroken iPad 2. If I find the apps ill add the info back here, but it required 2 apps (one from Cydia, the other was an AppStore one I believe) The Cydia app could connect to the adapter via BT then set up a http port for it. This was because the App was set to work with WiFi ODB adapters, at that point just enter the loopback (1201) and it worked like a champ. I would assume this would work on an iPhone too
