I was thinking of the same thing, tap the ODB port into a single board computer sitting on a nice flat panel. (The 1.5 DIN space in the NG 900 dash has 'possibilities') There's a truly scary amount of information that comes out of the OBD port. With an FM card, a fat harddrive, and some UI work, you'd have a nice unit. The OBD protocols aren't a secret...
[gears move in my head again] I'll talk to my linux people...
Anyway, I don't know why somebody hasn't done a DIN-sized LCD thingie with a zillion sensors. Hey, a production model might retail for several hundred bucks, and I'm not trying to say it would be in poor taste, but the rice set spends that much $$dough on truly worthless stuff, so I wouldn't see a huge problem getting the unit to sell.
