Smile OpenFlash Tablet Firmware 1.23 Preview

Hi guys,
In the never ending pursuit of bad-assery we are always looking for mays to improve the OpenFlash Tablet. This still probably a couple days away from public release. But just wanted to give you guys a preview of what is coming. If you are currently waiting for an OFT, you will be happy to hear that it will ship with these new updates:

1) Multi-vehicle Compatibility
[ame]http://youtu.be/5tYRpJqTECk[/ame]

OFTs will arrive to customers with the ability to be installed in any of our currently supported vehicles. This means that you have the choice to install your OFT in any of the following:
-FRS/BRZ/GT86
-Mazda MX5
-BMW 135/335/535/1M/Z4 (N54)
-BMW 128/328/528/325/330 (N51,N52,N53)
This probably won't have value to most people who just have one of the supported vehicles. But it would come in quite handy when it comes time to resell the unit or if you decide to switch cars. As always, the OFT can only be installed in one car at a time. For those who want the pretty BRZ/FRS/GT86 background pic that you currently have, we will have a template file on the website that you can download.

1) Enhanced Datalogging.
[ame]http://youtu.be/PbTP0jfGnZQ[/ame]

Please excuse the video stability. I was holding the iPhone in one hand and using the OFT in the other. It's hard to use a touchscreen when you are viewing reality through a phone screen But now you can see the additional data logging channels. There are a lot of them (and room for many more to come in the future). Among the current updates is the ability to log Advance Multiplier for all ROM types (not just USDM ROMs).

Got some more stuff in the pipeline too. But more on them later

Cheers
Shiv

From the website, NC Miata OFT is $54 cheaper than FR-S/BRZ.. So any future customers can purchase Miata tablet and install it on FA20 engine?

That question fits perfectly with your avatar image...

I'd like to know as well as I am planning on ordering my OFT soon!

Lol.. MX5 OFT will be raised to the same $499 price this week. That was just a brief into price we had for a couple of weeks.

We see up to 10hp gains. But biggest differences are improvements to low end torque. The stock tune runs 14.7:1 AFR up to 5000rpm for emissions reasons. We offer the only tune that fixes that

I plugged my OFT into my laptop today and it found an update, it automatically began to update but locked up. Now I show HW Ver:100 Fw Ver:123? Did it upload this 1.23 Firmware?

I was updated to 1.23 as well. Unfortunately, the update brought no new functionality to my OFT.

Correct. A new template file is needed to add functionality

wow! multi vehicle support! this is great.
this won't be my case but if someone has both BRZ/FRS & Miata, only 1 car can be used? is there option for 2 cars can be used? like unlocking software for 2 cars?
