ScanGauge II Automotive Computer- Adding Milage Tracker to your car

For quite a while I wondered if something like this exists.

I recently drove Toyota Prius of a friend and it had this cool feature where you could tell how many miles per gallon you are getting at the moment.

There seemed to be no reason to get an external fit instrument for this purpose. But when I searched in the past, only couple of companies turned up in results and they were in Australia and New Zealand etc.

And then while browsing thinkgeek, I came across this. Nice one.

The best way to watch your milage is watch it often. So this should help. It shows current MPG, average MPG for the trip and a lot more data. So with this, you yourself can find out if the car gives more milage when windows are open or when A/C is running. Or if the car gives more milage when drafting behind a small vehicle or not?

If any of you have used this, I would like to know some feedback.
