Just an FYI to anyone out there who is handy with a soldering iron.
I built this adaptor:
http://www.planetfall.com/~jeff/obdii/
and downloaded this software:
http://www.ross-tech.com/vag-com/download/

and can talk to my ECU with a windows laptop. I have not yet had time 
to play with it much, but I can at least read/reset codes and read diag 
channels. Not yet sure if the measure blocks function will work with 
this freeware version but overall it is still quite useful. The circuit 
was easy to make too. I just did point to point wiring on cheap perf 
board but the plans are all there if you want to make an etched circuit 
board.
