> INTEGRATOR Software on HTC P3600

HTC P3600 Up to now we have been using the HTC 3300 to run the INTEGRATOR Software. However, during this time we have noticed that running this software with other applications was slowing down the device. Testing has shown that the HTC P3600 produces much better results than the HTC P3300 if you want to run other software as well as the INTEGRATOR Software. With a faster processor and larger internal memory, the P3600 offers a more stable and better performing environment for use as a navigation and tracking device.



> GPS-Buddy Sleep Mode

Newer GPS-Buddy devices will have the ability to go into sleep mode.  During sleep mode, the unit will switch off completely and use almost no power. It will also stop sending data to the servers. 

The benefits of this sleep mode include:

• reduced risk of flat battery issues over longer periods, as the unit will only consume power when a vehicle is mobile.
• lower costs for data transfer connections, as the unit will only send data when a vehicle is mobile.


> GPS-Buddy Battery Mode

A new icon in GPS-Buddy Webservices now indicates when a unit switches from its permanent external power source to its own internal backup battery.



> Extended API Service

As you already know, the GPS-Buddy API service offers your customers a way of utilizing GPS-Buddy data in their daily business functions 24/7/365. In the new API version, the registering of movement data has been extended with the ability to register text messages.
