CHP, Android & Latitude

2010-06-15 21:45:26.200025+02 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

True story about how CHP, Android and Google Latitude saved the day. The thing that makes me intensely interested is that they had a phone with a GPS tracking app just running on it.

The apps I've tried to do that with on the iPhone 3G give me a battery life measured in minutes, so now I'm really interested in the Android based phones.

Running Google Latitude on my Crackberry doesn't particularly degrade the battery.
