If you want to go wireless via bluetooth and you have an android phone you can get a 'BAFX Products - Bluetooth OBD2 scan tool' from amazon.com and Torque from the Google play store. $30 total for both. I use it on my 2002 Jeep Wrangler and my C5 and it works well.

You need to decide what amount of detail you want, the cheaper versions generally only do the GENERIC OBD stuff, if you want manufacturer specific, your going to have to spend a little, especially if you want 2 way communication with the sensors to test them.

With the 5 dollar torque pro app you can add any PID you want to. It's by no means generic. They also have a sizable collection of GM PIDS available. Google will give you even more. I'm not sure if the free version allows custom PIDs or not. That's if the free version is even available anymore.
3boys is entirely correct though that it's one way. You can't write or send data with it. You can clear DTCs though.
