TPMS Question

Yet another TPMS Question.

I'm still going through the Owner's Manual of the new one that's been purchased and now waiting for springtime in Wisconsin.

From what I can determine, the tire pressure monitor is only used to trip a dashboard light if a tire is somewhat low in air pressure.

On my FX 35, I can push the Maintenence button and get the individual tire pressures of each of the four tires. I find I use this often--each time I drive the car, in fact.

Since the pressures are already being sent by the tire pressure monitors, is there any product available with the capability of capturing and displaying these numbers--either dashboard mounted or hand-held?
