Would any of you guys be interested in PDA Tuners?

I think this would be a good idea since PDAs are worth around $400 and you can do more with PDAs for almost the same price!

Using a PDA to tune the car. Comes with software for the PDA and cables to hook it up to your car.

similar to using your laptop to tune the car but more convient i would guess

sounds like a good idea, I plan on getting a PDA and if I had known they they were in existance I probably would have just gone with that instead of the XCalII, but I was lookin at the options on the XCalII and it is pretty BA. We should really all get together on here and do a post about what are the best settings for the XCalII since a lot of us have them. I may still do that PDA thing if the software is better than the XCalII

I have been looking at OBD-II software and connections for my PDA. i saw a pretty cool one that had a blue tooth connection, which would save you from ugly cables lol. they are just readers, no tuners though. I wish you could use something better to tune the car (just for cool factor) lol. I know some of my friends with asian cars have tuners they built that they can adjust on the go (which is really cool lol). My buddy with a wrx has a boost control (sweet huh?)

Is there currently any software available?

I voted yes, but it depends on the software available and what it can offer.

I say no. If I am flashing my car, I want a dedicated device, tested to work flawlessly with my car. PDA's are fragile little devices running multiple software, crashing constantly, full of weird side effects from all the crap loaded, etc. I can just see flashing my car with a PDA that crashes or get interrupted, and hosing my computer to the point where it can't even be flashed.

I'll stick with the XCal2. I have been burned by PDA's too many times (just look at a TREO 650 to see how much fun it is to integrate a phone and PDA... locks up constantly whenever you even a few things loaded).
