From what I can see, the cable uses a simple RS-232 interface. While the TPro has no such host interface (at least, not accessible to you), you could use a Bluetooth-to-RS232 link, effectively building an exact replica of the "BlueVAG" hardware that they sell there. You'd just need to setup a COM port under your bluetooth settings and you're all set. I'd imagine you could probably build it relatively cheaply.

If you decide to try it, let me know how it goes. Definitely seems to be extremely handy.

With all that it would take to make this work, I think that just buying a VagCom would be an easier, albeit more expensive solution
