Teletouch Communications, Inc. (AMEX:TLL), a leader in wireless messaging, and GPSi, LLC today announced the signing of a comprehensive dealer agreement aimed at providing cost-effective fleet-management solutions for small- to mid-sized business and government vehicle fleets. Pontiac, Mich.-based GPSi, which operates the Guidepoint(TM) telematics system, is providing Teletouch with a private-label fleet management solution to be sold under the VTrax(TM): Powered by Guidepoint(TM) brand. Teletouch recently began offering the new fleet solution to its Two-Way Radio Systems commercial and government customers in Texas, and will begin offering the VTrax products throughout the country later this month. The new dealer agreement expands on Teletouch's current contractual relationship with GPSi to provide response center and help-desk services for Guidepoint users in the U.S. and Canada. Guidepoint is a comprehensive technology and service solution for stolen vehicle recovery, driver safety/convenience and fleet management that integrates GPS satellites, wireless technology, the Web and 24/7/365 call centers in the U.S. and Mexico. Teletouch customers can reach the new fleet services group by calling toll-free, 888-GPS-FIND (888-477-3463), or by logging on to http://www.teletouch.com/vtrax_login.htm. The VTrax: Powered by Guidepoint fleet solution is targeted to small and mid-size enterprises with fleets of 2-to-200 vehicles. Designed with a "less is more" philosophy, VTrax offers the features most desired by small fleet operators, including ignition on/off and history reporting, stop reporting, and location-based tracking. VTrax delivers a complete tracking solution that fits a variety of business and government applications, including everything from contractors and mobile sales forces, to HVAC and delivery services, school districts and utilities. Guidepoint's fully digital system operates on the Cingular(R) GSM/GPRS/Edge nationwide network. Plus, Guidepoint's fleet solution offers a number of special features, including an optional in-vehicle panic button, with 24/7/365 response center assistance and stolen vehicle recovery and emergency support. "We're pleased to expand our relationship with Teletouch to provide a cost-effective and feature-rich fleet solution for small- to mid-sized enterprises, which we feel have been vastly underserved," said Rand Mueller, President and CEO of GPSi. "There are literally thousands of smaller, 2-to-200 vehicle fleets that can achieve significant and immediate returns on investment through improved asset management, insurance discounts and the cost-saving benefits of using a GPS-based solution to manage their fleets." T. A. "Kip" Hyde, Jr., Teletouch CEO added, "Given recent record gas prices, many companies and government agencies are taking a renewed and vigorous look at the use of their fleets, especially with respect to 'approved' versus 'personal' use. We have seen reductions of fleet vehicle use by as much as twenty-five percent, once vehicle tracking systems have been installed. The VTrax product line nicely complements our broader GPS-based telemetry solutions offering." About GPSi GPSi develops and markets telematics solutions for the automotive aftermarket. Based in Pontiac, Mich., GPSi draws on more than three decades of experience supplying mobile electronics to the automotive aftermarket, as well as 15 years experience in vehicle tracking.
