GPS Tracking a little OT

[ivan]

I proposed this question probably about the same time last year and I'm  hoping that someone may have made some development along these  lines.  We are looking to have a GPS "Balckbox" that would record  the usual date, time, location, and speed and then be able to download  that information to a laptop.  From here the thing we are really  hoping to do is to have that file imported to filePro so that the start  and stop time for a call can be entered into our service ticket thereby  improving the accuracy of the time and saving the technicians some time  doing data entry.  
  
  We have experimented with a device that records the data and connects  directly to the laptop.  We were not successful on getting this  information to download to the laptop so we were not able to get it  into filePro either.  Apparently the code these devices uses is  protected with a high degree of secrecy from the vendors of these  products.  Well, they haven't been willing to come forth with this  information.  I would love to hear from anyone working on a  similar project or someone that has had success with getting  information out of any GPS recorder.  
  
  Thanks
