Garmin ecoRoute HD - will it work with a 75?

Hello

I've just bought a new sat nav (Garmin Nuvi 1440). There's an expansion option called ecoRoute HD, which comprises a wireless ODBII adapter that connects to the diagnostic port on the car, and software on the sat nav for monitoring dat from the car such as temperatures, operating data etc.Was wondering if anyone had used this, and if they knew if it would work on our cars?

Garmin's site only lists the 25 and 45 as compatible (which considering the 45 also used the same V6 engine as mine, suggests it might work).Thanks

It should, I have an ebay odb2 reader for my laptop and it reads from the car no problem.

From the research i have done ( I have a garmin 1690 I have at work for my drivers.) it does.
