Thursday, 3. March 2011

Garmin, manufacturer of sat nav’s has come up with a new device that will alert you via the sat nav if a car moves out of a pre-determined area acting as a tracking device. You can be alerted by text message or email. The new GTU 10 system can be self installed and self monitored. The kit links to any nuLink enabled Garman Sat Nav so you don’t have to be near your computer to check the units status. You can edit your preferences via your computer and view a history of where your car has been. The battery lasts for 3 – 4 weeks so you can go on holiday and check the movement of your car when you return. They are now working on an iPhone app. So that you can check on your car whilst away using your smartphone. You can even enable others to see your tracker movements so that they can check on your car whilst you’re away. The cost of the GTU 10 is £179.99 including a year’s tracking.
