Yuck. If that's a geek dream, I'll take the nightmare. Smartphone app? Beautiful graphs? I want raw data over RS-232, csv, text/plain, not opaque layers of App Stores and flashy (unreusable) charts.

I believe the raw data can be exported as well - the graphs are just nice to be able to glance through and quickly digest
