“After 14 years, the Mobile Star Awards is still the only competition where today’s most exciting new mobile products and companies can compete against established competitors on a more level playing field,” says Mobile Star Awards director Gary Thayer. “A major part of this is because votes are cast by real users who really love the products—these are the mobile early adopters, mobile IT professionals, and tech bloggers who dominate our readership.”

“Winning a Mobile Star Award is a great accomplishment that’s recognized by the entire mobile industry,” says Mobile Village founder and CEO Jon Covington. “Mobile is the fourth great wave of computing, and there are now millions of mobile products competing for our attention. Mobile Star Award winners and nominees stand out from this crowd as the star innovators to watch and follow.”

About W-locate
W-Locate is the innovator behind the well-acclaimed products, FIND and XimLoc. FIND combines tracking technologies and tracking analytics to empower fleet and assets owners to remotely track, manage and protect its fleet and valuable assets. Most importantly with the analytics of FIND, fleet owners can leverage on FIND to increase the productivity of its fleet. FIND is remote vehicle diagnostics, incident detections systems, and fleet operation management all rolled into one. FIND is currently adopted by more than 2000 vehicles, of which many of these fleet owners are MNCs and large public listed enterprises in Singapore and Malaysia.

First in the world, XimLoc delivers a SIM-Based tracking system that can accurately track any mobile handset in both indoor and outdoor locations. XimLoc is a proprietary technology, which uses information and signals that are available from the GSM (2G/3G) network to compute positions. XimLoc uses an applet (that resides in a SIM card) to send back to a backend XimLoc server, which will calculate the most probable location based on WLC’s Patent-Pending algorithm. XimLoc has been vigorously tested and has been proven to be as accurate as GPS while addressing the limitations of GPS, i.e. inability to track indoor and heavy power consumption. W-Locate expect XimLoc to be deployed heavily for workforce tracking in Asia. XimLoc has already secured 2 major telecommunications companies to launch its services in South East Asia. XimLoc is also currently in talks with telecommunications companies in other parts of Asia and the Middle East.
