OK, so I have alot to learn about logging it seems. I was looking into some software a bit and, before getting too far, sent off an e-mail to make sure it even worked for my car.

As witness of my ignorance, I asked about knock sensing/reporting. They said that OBDII doesn't support a knock sensor but that I can watch the O2s while I drive.

Well... goodie.

I would ask questions but I clearly don't even know the right questions to ask. At MINIMUM I want to check for knock. I don't know what I'll have to hook into the car with. I'd love to justify one of the shiny, yummy new Dell Axim x51v's cuz I could justify it for work, etc. as well.

Is there a thread or some info in near-english somewhere I could start sticking my head into and start asking less and less stupid questions of those who know alot about this?

Thanks for any help - I know I can "just get a cheap palm and cable and software and get started" ... but if I'd just retire it in a couple of months for what I was thinking above I don't know why I'd waste the time and money to begin with and not make the initial leap.

Thanks...
