Does this mean there is a special cradle or charger in the car that triggers the time limit? I was under the impression we were having LG handsets that are basically mobile phones with non voice sims. This is all the type of info I was after so thanks.

I think it must work by the PDA detecting a power input, if I plug mine into a compatible charger it still counts down but when I unplug it the counter resets back to 15 minutes. Handy for keeping the battery topped up (only lasts about 45mins out of car) and saves having to keep going back to the car every 15 mins.

Unfortunately not every charger does this (phone does, iPad doesnt) and if I get sent a job whilst the PDAs plugged in, when I unplug it rejects the job !

Bill :)


I think the SYSTEM sends the text alert to the punter, over t'interweb, it doesnt get sent by the PDA/Smart/Android phone in use by the driver
