WebTech Wireless Announces the Launch of New Wireless Transportation Services Including Automated Driver Logs

BURNABY, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 7, 2005--WebTech Wireless Inc. (TSX VENTURE: WEW) - Trucking and Transportation organizations offered expanded ability to enhance their productivity with a range of new services offered by WebTech Wireless

WebTech Wireless today announced the release of Quadrant 7.0 wireless fleet management services for Transportation fleet operations. WebTech's latest release includes new and enhanced services, such as Automated Driver Logs, to help trucking and transportation companies improve the quality of their service and save significant dollars in operating costs.

Most noteworthy of the new services are Automated Driver Logs and Driver Performance functionality. Automated Driver Logs provide users with the ability to electronically track hours of service information in compliance with US and Canadian Department of Transportation regulations as well as automatic status change functionality through direct vehicle integration. Driver Performance provides Transportation organizations with driver/vehicle performance data, such as speeding, hard braking, excessive idling - a means for creating increased safety and additional cost savings.

"In an increasingly competitive environment, trucking companies are looking for new and innovative ways of streamlining their practices to improve their quality of service, productivity and profitability," says Anwar Sukkarie, President and CEO of WebTech Wireless. "Our new Quadrant 7.0 release, while increasing our competitive advantage in the marketplace, illustrates WebTech's continued dedication to develop and deliver powerful tools to the growing transportation market to help them excel in service and bottom line results."

"Electronic Driver Logs and Driver Performance functionality, both critical components in any trucking and transportation organization, strengthen our commitment to the transportation market while delivering solutions that are key for creating business efficiencies," commented Cameron Fraser, Chief Technology Officer, WebTech Wireless. "Both Driver Logs and Driver Performance address the real and immediate needs of Department of Transportation Regulations as well as creating cost savings through proactive asset management, while delivering increased driver safety."

Other key services and enhancements include:

- Trip Recorder - Automatically record every second of every trip through WebTech's Trip Recorder. The most recent vehicle location, speed, direction as well as telemetry inputs are stored in onboard memory to determine driving patterns and reconstruct details leading up to an event.

- Route Geofence - Enables the user to set up a Geofence for an entire route, ensuring a vehicle adheres to a pre-determined route.

Demonstrations will be available at the International Trucking Show (booth #16044), Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, California, September 8-10.
