Being able to update the Predator and more importantly, download datalogs is very important.
I've never bought a "PC interface kit" and you don't need to buy it from a DS vendor.
I had already owned 2 USB/Serial adapters so I didn't need a 3rd one.(Walmart or any electronic store carry's them,,ebay too)
Also a power supply isn't needed because with a laptop, you can just take the pc out to the car and use the OBD power.
If you don't have a laptop AC/DC power supplies are readily availible from RadioShack locally or much cheaper online like newegg,amazon ect.
With some vendors charging up to $50+ for the kit, its a bit much.
