who has a SCT TSX and/or live wire

looking to hear from people about there sct tsx hopefully. i really like all the options and the wireless part but im unsure if i want to go wireless because of possible problems with the wifi part of it. and im curious about the live wire, doesnt look as apealing to me but im more worried about ****ionality and the monitoring part. overall which is best? i can get a tsx for 900 or a livewire for 550. thanks!

Just bought a used livewire from a guy thursday here and let me say awesome purchase. Picked it for 250. Contacted 5 Star Tuning this morning at 10:15 and by 11:30 he had my custom tune to me by email. I ended up giving him the wrong device serial number but Mike responded a few hours later, keep in mind this was after business hours too, with the corrected tune and boy let me tell you I feel like I was driving another truck. The livewire itself is a little bit bulky, about the size of an old gameboy color i'd say. You can get a window mount for it or attach it on your dash somewheres. It can monitor up to 6 things you select but I have no need to monitor stuff really. On top of all the engine stuff it can monitor, It can show 0-60 time's, hp and tq values... show CEL codes. Best purchase i've made so far.

Well If it came down to it I guess the tsx is quite a bit more and has the same features I was just hoping someone would have a tsx so I had some kind of feedback wether it was good battery life and how the wireless worked. But I maybe getting the live wire in a matter of time

I have a iTSX, I got it off the group buy on sct programmers on the site for 400$. I got it in pretty good time, under a week. I have a 2003 f-150 Super crew 5.4v and I have the iPhone and it doesnt connect very well with the wifi so it took me a good three days tp finally get it to work but even then it wouldn't let me read any thing off my engine like I wanted to. Im currently waiting to get back to my house to go ahead and ship it back and switch to the new livewire for 600$. Hope that was some help!
