Cheaper alternative too. I guess some mag did some testing and this one came out on top. I really like the digital display too:

i guess we'll see soon enough with how fast they come out with updates i wouldnt be suprised if we see it an option next month now that im thinking about it though how is that gonna work, integrating it and all? Obviously it'll be just a software update...are you gonna have to have to still plug in the wb into your computer & all in like a usb port and somehow integrate it into hptuners programming? I feel like such a newbie with some of this stuff even though im not...programming starts to make you feel small lol

From what I have talked with Chris @ HPTuners, The Wideband option is actually going to replace the cable we currently use. It will have the inputs directly on the cable I assume. He didn't discuss exactly how it looked or much about it other than it not using the same cable and instead of integrating it through some sensor on the PCM he said it would be way easier to have the Wideband inputs go to a cable so that all cars would be the same as far as integrating it for use with a wideband.

I intend to get HP Tuner when it comes out with the data aquisition cable and wire up the PLX Devices wide band 0-5V output.
Check the PLX website, I think they sell a wireless O2 system that allows you to record data from the tachometer lead together into a laptop. Looks like pretty cool stuff.

I don't think the hard part is getting the signal into the laptop, its upgrading the software to read, store and correlate a new input. If it was design well this shouldn't be too difficult and for the sake of simplicity, HP tuners just has to have a new Y cable made up with a one-wire dongle added to their existing cable (for wideband input) on the PCM side (like monodax said) and offer a software upgrade package.
