Iphone's Dynolicious App: Any experience with it?
Hello: Does anyone have experience with the Dynolicious application for the Iphone? Just wanted to see if it was a bargain or just a toy? $12.99

Introducing: Dynolicious
Dynolicious is the first automotive performance meter available for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Dynolicious uses the hardware built-in to your iPhone to measure the performance characteristics of your vehicle. No external wires or equipment is necessary, simply slip the iPhone into a cradle or cupholder and go!
Some of the performance metrics Dynolicious can measure:
* 0-60 Acceleration
* 1/4 Mile Elapsed Time
* Lateral G's
* Horsepower
Unlike other accelerometer-based performance meters, Dynolicious uses the advanced data-handling and display capabilities of the iPhone to make the most of your performance testing. Dynolicious maintains a history of test runs, showing you averages and trends in your results. Dynolicious also allows you to enter modifications performed to your vehicle, and will instantly show before-and-after results to easily identify gains or losses

Yeah it's all over the forums. It's pretty bad ***, not the most accurate thing on the planet, but so far has proven itself to be far superior to the G-Force device that's been sold for years. The iPhone has some pretty bad *** sensors.
I'd personally suggest having a friend use it while you drive though

Someone on the boards was going to take one to the track and then to a dyno to test it for real... can't remember who right now.
Search "iphone AND dyno" in Boolean mode and you should find the thread.

if it doesn't move in the car, it is pretty accurate. There is a video of it being tested at a actuall 1/4 mile track on a Mini Cooper and it was 0.01 seconds off of the actual track 1/4 mile time.
