That is a seriously great idea! I can’t count how many times I’ve had six sites I’ve been at in a day and for the life of me can’t remember where on earth I put my impact wrench etc.. I would buy this in a heartbeat!

I think these are a fantastic addition to the work force. I know many, many contractors that could make use of every feature mentioned here. As well, many of these guys are hunters and fishermen. And I think they’d be tickled about the fact that you can attach the RFID tags to any equipment they intend to bring on those trips. It’s a bonus – a big one to the guys I’ve talked to about this so far. What will they think of next? Exciting news for many I know.

Fascinating development! Maybe you could accomplish real Just-In-Time deliveries at this stage. I will tell my fellow members of Swedish National Association of Purchasing and Logistics (Western region) about this.

The safety features are great and web access is a big plus.

My husband is a foreman for a large concrete company based in Pittsburgh. I cannot count the times he has called me at home to check the weather radar online for him. For him to be able to access the web from his truck would be a real time saver. I will be interested to see how much extra this function adds to the truck cost.
