Update: Amazon with BestDealUSA has it for $10.64 + $0.50 shipping = $11.14 shipped. Thanks, jsquare!
Amazon with ShopHDE has the ELM 327 Bluetooth OBD2 Diagnostic Scan Tool for $10 + $3 shipping = $13 shipped. Works with all OBD II compliant cars 1996 and newer, reads and clears diagnostic trouble codes, and can turn off the Check Engine light.
It it is like the one i got 6+ months 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
It works with Android and Torque. Iphone info is good, but you cant make it work with a non-jailbroke. just FYI but good info if you want to piddle with it.
bought one last deal...it's junk
Bought one several deals ago - works great with Torque on Android.
I have it, works well. Though a slight delay because of bluetooth. Great price at $13 though!
..
So, is an Android the only way of using this? There's not a lot of info on the site..
Got it for $12 last deal and works great.
I would assume there's other ways to use it other than Android

Agreed, I got it last time for $12 or whatever, and it works like a champ with Android/Torque.
I bought one from Meritline for same price. It works great with my Samsung Mesmerize.and Torque.
