In today's world of technology and consumer electronics, there are few areas growing more quickly than that of GPS Tracking. There seems to be a new GPS device out each week that improves on the last generation. Not only that, but they are getting more and more specialized as well.
Portable / Handheld GPS
More and more smartphones, PDA's and products like the Apple iTouch are offering GPS capabilities to more and more people on the go. Not only in the vehicle they are driving, but when they are away from their car. The new Garmin nuvi 1200 and 1300 series are designed for people in urban areas that want to be able to keep their GPS with them at all times. These models are available with transit system data for bus, railway and tramway data as well as city guides and the Garmin CityXplorer downloads. At only 1/2" thick, many consider them to be the best portable GPS around.
GPS Rental
A good way to check out the features and capabilities of the latest GPS systems is to rent one. There are a variety of places online that will allow you to rent most any model for short periods of time. Make sure you read all of the terms and conditions when renting so you don't end up paying way more than you expected in rental fees.
If you are a business owner with 1 or 100 vehicles that you need to track, GPS tracking systems are available for rent at reasonable costs. These companies will install the units in vehicles, monitor the driving habits of your drivers and report to you on a schedule of your choosing.
GPS tracking of all kinds have come a long way in the last several years and the upgrades seem to keep coming by the week. Do some checking around and you will find a GPS system that will suit your needs at a reasonable cost.
