i've got a potential project for a trucking company in new orleans that needs to use gps to locate trucks and post data to a central web site. most of the gps devices cater to folks that want to know where to go. i need to know where the trucks are to determine if folks are making their deliveries or hanging out in the truck stop all day.

i'm thinking about getting notebook pcs equiped with wireless internet (perhaps the sprint national network flavor) and a gps device. if each of the 30 trucks sent email every 10 minutes and a program posted the data to a central web site, i'd be happy.

any proposals from folks familiar with the tasks at hand?

Take a look at http://ncsu.transloc-inc.com/ . This is a pilot project for a new company started by former NCSU grads for real time tracking of buses, etc. The company web site is http://www.transloc-inc.com/site/content/products/tvs . I have no connection with the company but do work at NCSU. How usable this would be in your need I don't know. I don't know how they get the positional information sent back.
