Solara Field Tracker 2100

Jul 20, 2009 gps navigation, tracking

You may ask yourself what is this hideous yellow thing? Well, it is a GPS tracking device and we won’t argue with you about its hideousness. However we would like to remind you that it may very well save your life. Provided that 1) you buy it for $880 2) pay monthly fees of $30 – $45 depending on your contract term. But if it is your life on the line money is not issue so let’s stop talking about that and tell you more about the Solara Field Tracker 2100.

First off we’ll backtrack and correct ourselves. This is not just a simple GPS tracking device. It is a 2 way communications device with GPS tracking that promises to work anywhere on earth – using those Iridium satellites (one of which made the news recently after colliding with a Russian satellite). It lets you do 2 way text messaging and provides real time GPS tracking with automatic updates and can run for days or even weeks depending on your configuration.

The secure, online Web-based client interface for the Field Tracker 2100 includes tracking of multiple units with online maps, reading and sending text messages to individual Field Tracker 2100 units and the ability to broadcast to multiple units. Forwarding of text messages by email and automated telephone contact anywhere in the world are standard features of the Solara Web-based client interface. Units can be remotely controlled, including changing the time interval between position message transmissions
