I looked on ebay one time for a scan tool that connects to my pocket pc. There is a cheap one for the Palm, but for the PPC, it is expensive and you have to have a serial connection, which I do not have. If you have a palm, though, you can get a kit for pretty cheap. Just do it eeeebbbaaayyyyy!!! My singing sucks, but you get the point!

are there any setups for the obd 1 computers and lap top hooks ups??

very interested..

 

There are a lot. I had built one myself and used it for a number of months, it quit working for one reason or another and I never did take the time to fix it. If you are good with electrical circuits, you can build one for less than $25 or buy one, a good one, for around $50.

I saw somthing on tech tv a couple of months ago. it's a little thing that goes onto the connector and then after you drive around you connect it to your computer.

 

I can quick look to see if I find it.

 

EDIT: here it is.

Anyways, i would be interested in how to build one of these.
