Carman for Maemo looks amazing
I discovered Carman on Maemo Garage last night…
I am pretty sure that most cars built in the US after 2000 have the required connector under the hood to send the data to your Nokia Tablet with an additional bluetooth device. I’m not that much of a car geek, but I could see myself becoming one very quickly with this…
Makes me want to revisit integrating GPS, Music and Phone (now telemetry) through a nice touch screen. Carputer here I come!
I honestly have no idea how much the OBD-II device costs, but I am off to investigate!
The ElmScan 5 Wireless OBD-II interface costs $199.95, and is available from the ScanTool.net website:

The price for ElmScan 5 is unacceptable. Do any of the cheaper BT OBD connectors work with Carman?
wish I knew …I’ve yet to try this first hand
I found out these devices are also supported: Car-Pal, AGV4000, OBDPros, OBDKey… but they are also difficult to find 🙁
