No offense should be taken Azreal! Sorry if my posts offended you. It has nothing to do with time on the board, post counts, or anything else. I don't trust my own dealer let alone someone I don't recognize on the board. I assure you going forward I will have a better understanding of your "field experience". It is iunvaluable to have members/guests here such as yourself to assure everyone doublechecks their personal theories and sources. So a personal thanks to you for educating me. It is of utmost importance that the board is well informed.
As for RT; consider one lunch owed in concert with the official crow eating.
As for infinite bass............what's your point? Your wasting bandwidth again!

EXCELLENT, IB. Thanks! Bookmarked it!
Me... I'm gonna try a laptop-based solution. Wouldn't it be cool to have the OBD stuff at your fingertips while posting s2ki? I can see the convenience of having this as a stand-alone tool tho.
Rock on.

I would do the same since I trust this board more than most of the honda dealers out there.

I'm not sure I'd go that far, Former 
I know that I want to be able to understand the problems that my car detects in itself. The whole idea of having the diagnostic tool to do that is very "sexy" and feeds my desire to learn about the car. Fixing said problems... that's another story.
I consider myself good on theory but short on experience. There are definitely folks lurking "under the hood" here that are serious mechanics, but I'm not one of them. I can use a wrench, do minor repairs, and read a shop manual with the best of 'em, but no way I'm gonna tear an engine / tranny apart.
That said, there is definitely a paucity of trust between the owners here and the dealers. It gets talked about a lot. Totally understandable given the tremendous combined knowledge out there that s2ki members represent. Glad to be here!
Best wishes

What is this crap?
I'm not allowed to say something bad about someone else? I can understand the scorn on profanity and such -- but what, I'm not even allowed to make a statement about someone else's behavior? That's rediculous!
