    We demo'd one for a couple weeks but boss hasnt bought any yet. Seems like a waste of time and money to me anyway unless you do a lot of deliveries or out of town work.

    I have been looking into a lot of them in the past year, and have to agree, the upfront cost & setup and monthly fees are too much for my blood.

    I looked at others where you can download the information as well but most require you to have a laptop for downloading. I have been looking at the CarChip from www.davisnet.com. You can unplug it and upload the information onto your desktop computer.

    Have you considered using a Palm to do this? Possibly something like this link?
