Then I saw the add above for Superchips VIVID:

The power of Superchips and the AndroidTM operating system are now in the palm of your hands. The state-of-the-art Superchips VIVID is the first of its type to successfully integrate many of today's popular consumer electronics with a full blown performance tuning device. The key is the combination of Superchips vehicle tuning features combined with an internet tablet powered by the Android operating system, opening up a whole new world of performance and features. This is certain to be the best selling performance product of 2011!
Here are a few of the countless uses for the Superchips VIVID. Tell us how you want to use yours.

Yeah the Vivid has been in the works for well over a year now at least. Im sure it debuted at a CES show somewhere along the lines. It looks nice but I would not give my tuner with a touch screen to my kids so they can play games on it.

Superchips is supposed to come out with AVID this fall I believe that is the software and bluetooth obd dongle that runs on your own droid phone. I'm looking at this as I dont really need to buy a whole other touchscreen droid device.

No Avid yet, Vivid is their own device. Not much hope for me and my big V10 as Sperchips dosen't seem to support us. =( Hemi programming might come close. Sounds like I have to go after standard methods to get a few more mpg's...or rob a bank this summer.

Was told replacing the clutch with an electric fan, and replacing the crank pulley with a smaller one would reduce loading. Then to increase aspiration with K&N filter and maybe dual exhaust pipes. Anything else I should consider that is cheap and easy?
