Here are the latest alpha testing screen shots of the VIVID.

The VIVID software offers the same best in class tuning levels and features as offered in the Flashpaq and Cortex programmers.

You will get 2 DAQ features. The first one offers real time sensor data in a bar graph form. The bar graph data offers up to 4 icons on the left of the screen. The first icon offers 0-30 mph, 0-60 mph, 1/8th mile, 1/4 mile and 1 mile data with storage to save the runs.

Each of these icons can be selected at random as often as the user wants.

The second DAQ option is an application that offers real time sensor data in an analog gauge format providing a total of 5 gauges on the screen.

Touching an individual gauge pulls up a list of features that allow you to customize a number of options including how the face looks and what specific sensor you would like to view and record.

There is a mileage monitor called the Driving Coach that details your particular mileage gains or losses in real time helping those interested in improving their mileage actually see the results as they change their driving habits.

A Maintenance Manager allows you the ability to program reminders in the application such as an oil change so you don’t forget.

Scott this can't come out soon enough! I'm foaming at the mouth seeing this app in the works. I stated before I'd let my EVO run it but now I see its a much better idea to let it run on its own device as its got so much goin on. July still launch date? =D it reminds me of the torque app but this of course comes with superchips add ons. Hey if you need beta testers, I'm still available

You shouldn't have any issues running it on a Droid product if you choose to do that. We will be releasing that feature after the Archos unit hit's the streets.

I believe we will be past July for the release but hopefully we won't be too far from it.

I have been looking into turners and have sold myself on Superchips. Was about to buy the cortex when I saw an add for vivid. Seems like I might have to wait now.

You did say that the Vivid will tune much like the Flash and cortex. So does that mean that this studly device will be able to work with my 04' hemi?

Also I heard something about wireless tuning? If your data connection is interrupted mid-tune, you could totally kill your ECM, no? I'm hoping the person I heard this from is just misunderstanding something. I wouldn't want to risk a wireless tune for the sake of my ECM.

Here is the latest news:

Estimated ship dates for the VIVID now called VIVID PAQ is 8/31. Currently we are finalizing alpha testing on the product as well as getting the user’s manual and box graphic's this week or next.

The AVID now called the VIVID LINQ has no release data at the moment. I would assume it would be released shortly after provided we don't have issues related to different Android products/phones.

Estimated pricing for the VIVID PAQ:

Gas apps: $599.99
Diesel apps: $649.00

No word on the VIVID LINQ at this time but it will be less since it doesn't come with the ARCHOS.
