OBD-II WiFi adapters and ipad or mobile device

Has anyone had any experience with using say an iPad to monitor their XK ?

Is an XKR 2005 compatible with OBD-II WiFi adapters ?

I was just looking at this and wouldn't mind trying to do it and have the ipad in the car .

Parameters and codes from the XKR

Thanks, I'm just trying to find out now what parameters are measured and if the codes are standard so I can find a wifi / Bluetooth OBD adaptor that will work well.

Anyone have any info on this or has actually done it I would really appreciate it.
