I think I need to buy an IPhone:
Innovate Motorsports OT-2 - Transform your iPhone or iPod into a wireless gauge, data logger, dyno, efficiency meter and OBDII scan tool. (http://www.ot-2.com/)

I reckon it will only work to a degree..

being as though I have had an OBD11 scanner on the puma it will only pick up generic codes not ones that are Land Rover specific.

Had a look at this and a few things stand out.

No mention of CANbus, so not sure about working on newer vehicles
I doubt it will work on anything other than the ECM and may not work on diesels
If it does work I suspect it will be about the equivalent of a ScanGaugeII but with a more user friendly interface.
As the wireless set up runs of the OBDII port it will draw power from there and there is no mention of what it does whilst the ignition is OFF. This may therefore drain the battery.

Would be nice if the site listed compatible vehicles.

Hi just got an i-phone4 and there is two apps from go-link to use this phone as a code reader and display realtime info but it depends on what the car maker make available. the lead to connect the phone to the obd plug was $99 (u.s) and also charges the phone.
