We are excited to announce that there is now a WiFi option for OBDLink. Currently OBDLink is the only OBD scan tool on the market available with both a WiFi and a USB interface.

OBDLink WiFi is compatible with a wide range of software, including OBDwiz, ScanXL, and ScanMaster. It is also compatible with diagnostic software for the iPhone: DashCommand and Rev.

*pyOBD-II (a.k.a. "pyobd2") is a Python library for communicating with OBD-II vehicles. Its goal is to make writing programs for vehicle diagnostics and monitoring vehicle data as easy as possible. Being written entirely in Python, pyobd2 is intended to be portable across many platforms, including Mac OS X, Linux, BSD, and Windows.*

pyOBD-II is written and maintained by Peter J Creath. You can [download pyOBD-II](http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyobd2/) from Sourceforge.
