I agree, wireless flashing sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

If one doesn't already exist, it likely wouldn't be too challenging or expensive to create an OBDII -> serial -> usb cable, and then a tablet app that could interface with it. Would enable some cool possibilities that aren't really possible on the OFT hardware.

*hint*hint* Openflash
