Hellp choosing an OBD2 Tool

Just posted in the Boxster/Cayman forum about my car throwing a P3001 code (again) when starting up in cold weather.

I have been planning to buy Softronic because it works great with Porsche and other euro-makes. I happen to have other makes in the stable - Jeep, Chevy, Pontiac - and Softronic only lets you bind up to 3 VINs on the 'enthusiast' version. I'm looking for something I can use on more than just 3 cars. So, I've been looking:

OBDCOM - Seems to be pretty comprehensive and usable on all makes/models. Support available for the software and works on all OBD2 cars.

Innova 3130 - Looks to be a comprehensive hand-held tool. I can pick one up locally or order from Amazon.

Are there others I should look at in the $250 & below range?

Thanks!
