Reading codes with Palm V70-XC70

I remember seeing a long time ago a message about a program and a a cable link for a Palm to read the codes from an OBDII equipped Volvo.
Does anyone of you have this setup? Does it perform well? How much does it cost? Where can I find it?
Are there other alternatives (Not so expensive) to read the codes?
I have a 98 V70, latetly it started to look like a Christmas tree, I have to erase the codes (I don't know what code/codes) every 2 weeks and also the ABS started to come on every once in a while.
I am paying attention to tightening the gas cap but that doesn't seem to have an effect on the problem.
Thank you in advance.

    Reading codes with Palm V70-XC70

    Good luck with your quest. I tried to ask the same questions here some time back, and came up against a brick wall. You may as well save your breath right now, and go see your dealer, like I had to do. Either they don't know in here, or those that do know don't want to divulge the information.


    Cheers

      Frustrated

      There is this amazing thing called SEARCH on this site. If you took the time like I did to perform the search your question would be answered.

      It took less than a minute to find this site

      www.auterraweb.com

      Try it. It works. Use the site correctly and most all your questions will be answered.

        Thank you for the information ANNOYED, I was able to find all the information I needed and to find out about the search function.
        After a full time job, wife, 4 kids and 2 dogs I don't have a lot of time to play with my toys or in this board. I do make time about once a month to assist other fellow brickheads just as you helped me.
        Thank you again. I do appreciate your assistance.

        regarding Search V70-XC70

        Not to take sides, but the search on this site/board sucks. I tried searching for something as simple as "V70" and it comes back with one find and it has something to do with "Stories"... i have no idea what that was or means.

          nevermind, seems to come up now. I swear somewhere on this site the search is messed up though.
