Dear
PocketReperion™ user,
Thank you for
your interest.
We are
building a live GPS community for and by the people... thank you for joining in
this early stage. We depend on your input and ideas to create the most valuable
personal GPS tool. We hope to develop with you many useful and enjoyable
applications of mobile GPS technology.
PocketReperion
in its most basic form must stay free. That is why we need a lot of users and a
lot of your input to make the best and useful GPS tool next to navigation…
PocketReperion
is a multipurpose GPS
application, the most important function being:
“tracking and tracing
in real-time with audio/picture/video blogging”
You can use
PocketReperion to send out your GPS location to our server, which in it’s turn
will present your location, track, pictures and audio via a web interface.
People can use this interface to track your position, you can send and receive
text and audio messages as well.
Of course, we
are developing and presenting new functions every few months, we introduced
“buddy proximity alerting” “geo-fencing” “send messages to people in radius of
xx miles” and many more fun and useful options.
See it like
this, if you see a speed-camera being setup along the road, you can soon enter
and broadcast that information to all interested PocketReperion users in a
certain radius of that event. We will
introduce a “karma” system that let’s other users reward you for the
correctness of that information.

you want to contribute in any way, please go to the forum : http://http://geocool.reperion.com/web/forums

obtain a working account. The buddy tracking options are amazing ! Locate your friends
and have course and distance plotted for you. See where they are on the map or

Cab files are
easy to install. Just keep the "open this file after download" checked
when downloading the *.cab files from a mobile device browser.
If, however, you want to install the *.cab file from your
PC to your PocketPC, use the explorer and copy the *.cab file to any location
on your PocketPC and open it.
It will
install, and on some devices, the *.cab file is automatically deleted after
install. You can make the *.cab file read-only before installing, to prevent
the installation *.cab file from disappearing, so you can send it to others or
re-use.
Remember, all
it takes to invite someone to also use PocketReperion is to send them the *.cab
installation file (per Bluetooth or email or infrared) and have them signup to http://geocool.reperion.com/Web/user/CreateUser.aspx? to obtain a
free account.

The MAPS OFF picture (the angels) in your PocketPC can be personalized, create a
148x148 pixel image and call it : MapsOff.gif and put in your MyDocuments
folder on your PPC.
·
The very first time you have
PocketReperion running, with a GPS with a "fix", a working internet
connection your account information entered correctly, set your "DX"
threshold to "ANY". This will make PocketReperion send an update to
the server, regardless of the fact that you are NOT moving enough to break your
MinDX threshold you setup. This is really handy for testing, but might
not be useful to people in normal day to day operations.
Please try the
free Google Earth client, and see the stunning live tracking in action via
Google Earth. http://earth.google.com
When you have
installed Google Earth, you need to
enter a "network link" similar to http://tracker1.reperion.com/images/yourusername.kml
under ADD NETWORK LINK
