Oops, missed your post. I bought it off ebay, the ELM323. Software, I'm using OBDGauge for pocketPC. Going to have to source a laptop with a serial port to test it out with. My pocketpc has a non-standard serial port, so it could be causing the dropouts. Laptops with serial ports are rare post-Pentium2.

Next time you are in Melb let me know - I have a couple of laptops with serial ports - an old P3 that has 1 directly and a P4 that has one via a port replicator. I would be interested to see this working.
