Is superior to the other ?

They would both use ELM based hardware, but the software seems to be different. I don't mind paying the additional monetary amount for the (#2) Palmer PCMSCAN scam software if it is actually better and more functional.

Perhaps some in this group has hands on experience with these OBD2 devices.

I'm also shopping for a pc based software and hardware. The hardware seems pretty standard. Those two look good, heres 3 more I wish would sell just the software.

Be careful when dealing with the folks at (myscantool.com / gore-research) I purchased a scan tool which did not work on either of my cars right out of the box. They will do nothing about it. As a matter of fact they don't even have a phone number so you can speak to someone. Email is often not answered.....unless it's for a sale. Right now I have an expensive paper weight...

So you are searching through archives for anyone who mentions myscantool.com just so you can bash the company? I don't think your 2 month late reply is going to help the OP any...
