Herndon, Va. - June 14, 2006 - GeoLogic Solutions, the transportation industry's leading provider of Multi-Mode communications and tracking systems, today announced the availability of over-the-air software downloading capabilities. Used for MobileMax software upgrades and enhancements, the ability to perform this task wirelessly using Cingular's GPRS network means that fleets no longer have to physically "touch" their trucks every time an upgrade is needed.
With over 2,200 trucks in 72 different locations, Lexington, S.C.-based Southeastern Freight Lines predicts that over-the-air software downloads for their MobileMax systems will save them "hundreds of man-hours," According to Dave Robinson, vice president of MIS at SEFL. "Prior to utilizing the new over-the-air download capability from GeoLogic it took a great deal of coordination to bring each truck into a location to download an update into each MobileMax system," continued Robinson. "There were also occasions when we had to fly people to company locations to perform upgrades on a weekend. The time, logistics and money we are saving with the ability to perform our upgrades wirelessly is quite substantial."
"In addition to saving our customers the time and money involved with taking a vehicle off the road," stated John Lewis, president and CEO of GeoLogic Solutions, "this new over-the-air software download capability will give them the assurance of knowing their fleet is always up-to-date with the newest application or latest upgrade. The whole process just became much easier and very convenient."
