Reminded me of that story when one was booking a flight.
Passenger: "How come when I was booking a flight, ticket price was $600, now when I pay for it, it's $1000?"
Airline employee: "Its the price of the ticket + fees: sales fee, ticket origination fee, fuel surcharge fee, luggage fee..."
Passenger: "I have no luggage!?"
Airline employee: "... no luggage fee..."

I've never had a Qualcomm. I don't think I'm missing anything.
If ya ever had to have a tracker so far I think the QC is the best.
I have had 3 different trackers. The QC, Macro point and a Verizon tablet. Tablet wasnt a bad system but the macro point just plained sucked.. I didn't care for it at all even tho it properly was the cheapest.

That's how I use to promote supervisors. Throw them against the wall, if they stuck, they were supervisors.

I like having a Qualcomm. No phone calls asking where are you at, no leaving the phone location on and running your battery down all the time. I don't mine paying for it.
One of the problems with QC - dispatcher sends load, does not call.
If you are not in vehicle, you get a surprise call, asking why aren't you rolling.

As long as he stays on the good side of a few dispatchers, he will do ok, the one that worked the hardest for me was James, but turn down one particular dispatcher and she will park you in a heartbeat.

James has been excellent for me as far as communications and trying to find loads is concerned ... I would appreciate a pm with the other individuals name :)

Had one that was booked last night for pickup this morning from Atlanta to Oklahoma City...night shift employee incorrectly shipped it out on another carrier to a local warehouse...couldnt get approval to go get it 14 miles away, was dry run after 2+ hours.

Hopefully get something better. (Cue Murray and "Booked"...hint hint)
