More VT600 3G trackers ordered

I've just ordered another batch of 10 trackers, so if any of you still want one or 100, let me know.
I'm in the process of setting up an online store so people can buy from there any time.

I'll probably put the extras from this batch on ebay to get rid of them, but they will be more expensive to cover the ebay fees.
They will be $150 here, and probably $175 on ebay.

They're good until December... but generally speaking, they have to be installed to be of any use :snigger:

Android is software, not hardware. I have never heard of software catching fire :poke:

Either that, or you switch to another network that still has 2G.
Personally I wouldn't use anything but Telstra though.

What do you mean?
They use a SIM card to either send messages with their location, or connect to a tracking server like the one I built to give real time information on where your vehicle is.

Is that what you mean?
