Carchip diag chip

Has anyone tried the DriveRight CarChip and CarChipE/X? It is a diag chip that plugs right into the diag port on all OBD-II vehicles from 1996 to present. After driving around awhile with it you take it out and plug it into your home computer or laptop to download all of the diag codes and readouts from the vehicle's computer. You can get it at AutoZone.
I am asking about this because I want to hear if anyone else bought this and if so how did you like it? Was it what you thought?
Thanks,
Matt

I've been using one in the company truck for over a year. Helps keep tabs on how its being driven. I like it.

Both. Started it as an evaluation to carry in the online store. Have wanted to carry them ever since but it keeps slipping through the cracks with all the other things to do.
