I have the software and cable from www.obd-2.com, it can read transmission temps, as long as the temp is sent to the ecu.

The customer service folks said that it will read the tranny temperature. When I get it I will let everyone know if it does.
Again it will depend on if the temp is monitored.
I use mine for my other cars, my 92 being obd-1 it does not work. I have a 96 civic, a 2000 grand am gt, and I use it on my dads 97 gmc pickup. my 96 has a manual so no trans temp there my GA it does tell the temp and also on the gmc.
