There are many people now use iphone, send apple end OBD-II Software for reference,
OBD-II data terminal interface to read, you can use Bluetooth, you can also use USB, Bluetooth personally believe that there is a delay, USB connected laptop should be better. Bluetooth is a "Bluetooth ELM327", USB is the "ELM327 USB OBD2",

I bought Dash Command for the iPhone and PLX cable from Greece and it's really only good for reading and clearing codes. You can't do all the ECU tuning stuff with it.
