It was widely reported last week that Carman for the Nokia 770 and Nokia N800 was released. This piece of software allows users with an OBD-II scanner to monitor the status of their car’s engine "live." The hurdle to overcome in this is that the Nokia N800 does not have an external serial port. ScanTool.net overcame this by releasing a Bluetooth option to their ElmScan line of OBD-II devices.
I had the opportunity to meet with ScanTool.net yesterday (Thanks for meeting me on a Saturday, guys!) and they showed me their ElmScan line of products and provided me with a Bluetooth unit to test with the N800. We went for a test drive together and saw the advantages and limitations of Carman. By meeting with them and seeing their office, I can tell that this company is in the business of innovation. They see problems and limitations then invent the right solution and put it into action.
