You know if you have a Power FC and Datalogit in your car, all you have to do to get this:

is mount a Tablet PC somewhere. It might work with an UMPC (the only reason I think it might not is the resolution should be 800 by 600 or better).

Ignore the onscreen keyboard at the bottom. I had to bring that up to do a print screen. It is a Windows program that has auto tuning, gauges, support for the digital interface of an LC-1 wideband, accurate speedometer, colored graphs, color-coded maps of fuel, ignition timing, and VVT-i, capability to view the maps in 3D, edit as you drive (change maps, change rev limit, change VVTL-i low and high RPMs, view and edit all kinds of other things), auto tune as you drive, launch control (2-step rev limit), data logging and replay (at different speeds), alarms for user-defined conditions (like injector duty > 90%... 10 others can be defined at the same time), automatic calculation of from-speed-to-speed times (like 0-60), a lateral G meter (shown, which also replays by the way, you need a $65 USB accelerometer for it to work), logging of GPS position/speed/heading (you need a USB GPS antenna for that), and a bunch of things I've surely forgotten. It is called Copilot and can be downloaded from here:
