Just find a copy of Windows XP or Vista and use Apples Bootcamp, comes with the OS, to selectively run Windows on your Mac. Turns your Intel based Macs Mac into a dual OS / dual boot machine. It is my understanding Bootcamp is not yet fully compatible with Win7. Switched to Mac's almost 2 years ago and loving it.

I'm sure it will be soon and there are some other features they are working on that possibly will be released at the same time.

The richer the feature set, the longer it's going to take and certainly don't want to get it before it's ready.

Also, if you already have the Flashpaq, you should contact them to see if you cen be involved in any pre-release beta stuff they have going on for the 2010.

I have the Jeep Flashpaq by superchips.....going from stock to the 93 octane setting made a little difference but not much. I changed my exhaust, added a TBS, and a CAI. It's fun to show the fellas but it's still a 3.8 V6.

Memo to Superchips: I'm interested in your unit, but it MUST be able to run lockers in high, WITHOUT being connected, and to at least 30 MPH. I'll check back here once in a while, and I won't be buying one until it does. If it's not available in a year, then I'll be doing the hard wiring, and not buying your programmer.

How many others like me are out there??

Then do the locker mod with switches. Lockers at atleast 30mph?! wth do you need that for in 4x4? I could see the rear locker in 2wd to play around with..but

The tuner talks to the JKs can bus allowing the lockers to be used in 4-hi when connected. When it isn't, there isn't anything to alter the can bus and allow you to do so. So go ahead and hard wire it now...

There would have to be some sort of module you plug in and leave in the obdII connector to do something like that with a JK. Just how it is...
