Has anyone tried the newer, really small OBDII Bluetooth adapters like this one?
Little Blue Gadget on Amazon

I've read here and on Amazon reviews that the BAFX adapter is one of the best, but the one linked above is about one third of the size. That would be ideal for one of my vehicles, where the big adapter might stick out too far.
 
I have one of those that I got from Newegg during a Shell Shocker deal. Got 2 for $20 and gave one to a friend. It works on all of my cars.

I did have a problem with it while using Torque Pro on a 02 Bonneville. For some reason it wouldn't connect to the ECU but the phone was connected to the adapter.
 
I have one and it works pretty well with Torque Pro on my android for my 2002 Sunfire.Didn't try with Forenza yet.
 
This is my 2nd blue box the first I got off ebay and it didn't work, but I was thrown off because it lit up and blinkied, my phone never connected to it. I gave up on it, but saw another on ebay in a recommendation pic, so I looked on Amazon and bought one, this time, it worked!
This one has 3 diag lights on it, but same concept.. I use Torque Pro on my Android phone.
It works to say the least.
bluetooth itself is not a fast signal, but it's good enough.
scanning for codes works, a tad slower vs a scantool, but the other functions of Torque do come through, although trying to see what the o2 Sensor voltages are doing can cause some confusion, the bluetooth can't send the constant voltage changes as fast as a scantool can. However, if you're saavy enough, you'll know whats going on and be OK.
