I was going to buy the lead from ecutalk.com.au, but ended up buying from a dodgy looking website, http://www.dinodirect.com/nissan-con...rency-AUD.html.

26bucks +free delivery (BARGAIN)
EcuTalk cable 75bucks + post

I didn't like the look of the EcuTalk Cable, the wires going into the plug looks like a backyard job unfortunatly.

With the DinoDirect one you will have 2 buy a serial to usb lead, which isn't that dear. Unless your laptop still has one of those old ports.

Don't think it came with software but there is free software on the net you can download.

I havn't played around with it much but i am having a look at ECUTALKS software at the moment http://www.ecutalk.com/ecutalk.aspx.
Free software, but if you like please donate something, from what i have read Peter from ECUTALK is a top bloke.

Yep - downloaded it yesterday with the updates (and yes, did donate also - great concept that he should be rewarded for).
