I'm interested in this as well. I'm curious as to how many gauges there are to choose from. I've searched their website and downloaded the documentation but no mention of it.
To those that own one, are the gauges shown the only ones that can be displayed or can you pick and choose which ones to display from a list based on OBDII data?

Can choose 5 gauges to display at a time. One large one in the middle and 4 smaller ones at each corner. You can choose each gauge to display:
Speedo
RPM
Voltage
Engine temp
Mass airflow sensor
Intake manifold temp
Intake pressure...boost
Engine load
What I have on mine is bold in the above list, with the speedo in the middle.

This is slightly off-topic, but here's a question for the brain trust:
I was surfing through the Android Market last night and ran across an application call "Torque" (something like that). This is supposed to work with the ODBII adapters (via Bluetooth) and can display a set of gauges as well as set/reset fault codes.
Anyone familar or have used this application in the past?
Cheers.

I love my 1490T. Had it at least 3 months and it is great. You can set a destination still and hear the audible turns. Unfortunately, it does not have a mini info gauge that could show some of the data from the trip; such as distance to turn, miles to destination, arrival time. I bought my HD from Newegg.com for $99 and not tax, no shipping

Mine does show how far to next turn and I have it set to show estimated arrival time in lower left--the only thing I miss is compass direction (I've set it up so the ETA replaces the compass direction when following directions).

The EcoRoute HD has just the ODBC II connector.
The Garmin has just the power cord.
Currently it's either suction cupped to the speedo or attached to the Garmin bean bag dash mount.
Craven Speed has a MINI GPS Mounting Kit that includes a power cable extension plug and wire taps so you can power the GPS under the console and still have the 12v socket available above. Also, they have a longer bracket available for larger GPSes. You may need to talk to someone to be sure to get the 5" vs the 3.5". (Thanks to Scooter162 for this info).
I'll probably be getting the Craven Speed mount.

Couldn't have said it better than Rainman. I went with the CravenSpeed mount with the longer arm: see my gallery for a photo. If you'd like more, or have any questions, just let me know.
Oh, and the cord on my 1490LMT provides power, but also has the bit that receives live traffic info (which has been QUITE useful here in the Los Angeles area).
