Best OBD Code Reader

Hey everyone, started doing some mods to my 2012 R60 and was curious as to what all of you thought about bluetooth OBD's and what one you suggest and why.

Just got the Schwaben unit from ECS. Really impressive feature and pretty easy to use. Would not own a Mini without one. Interestingly, I've been riding Burton's for over 30 years.

Do you just want to read codes or the whole package? My favorite is the Scangauge. It reads codes, has multiple realtime gauges, all from just a OBD plug and only $140. There's one for sale here for $100

If you have an iPhone the dashcommand is nice, gets the job done and will only cost around $40 including the obd2 transmitter.
