Tracking systems in the service vans

My companyis installing Xora gps systems in the new service vans and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with these? Xora seems to be the up and coming gps to use and is a subdivision off Nextel.

My guy installed some "non" name brand GPSs in our tech's vehicles. Aside from the obvious Big Bro stigma they are now being paid based upon what the reports says. Leave the house @ 8:15? You get docked. That is fine but as this gizmos were "?" brand sometimes they weren't so accurate.
I believe if you have a fleet of mechanics who are capable of fixing all kinds and types of lifts (Electric,LP Diesel etc.) the "global dispatch" program would work. My 2 cents anywho

I personally do not have experience with Xora, however a good friend of mine owns a H.V.A.C company and recently had these units installed on 6 of his 10 service vans. He has been nothing but happy with these and it seems like christmas morning evertime I talk to him because he is so excited about new features he discovers. His one complaint, if you call it a complaint was the upload process on inital booting.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
