Haven't been on these forums for ages. I guess nothing ever came of this...

I have never actually brought it to market because the cost of a daylight readable display is cost prohibitive. I have been working on a WiFi based OBD dongle, where you use your phone, laptop, etc. with it. I realize that there are many similar devices out there, but the advantage to mine will be the Toyota specific pieces that others don't offer (like the ability to read and reset trouble codes on any of the ECU's, as opposed to just on the ECM).

That's the hard reality of production: it doesn't matter how cool it is if you can't get it to market at a price people are willing to pay. Perhaps you should have the thread locked?

No - I don't mind keeping it alive. I run my own engineering consulting firm now, so I am hoping that at some point I will have a similar display need for a customer project, where I can purchase them in enough of a volume to hit the right price point.
