Location Based Technologies held its Annual Shareholder's meeting at its headquarters in Anaheim, CA. During the course of the meeting its new PocketFinder Laptop product was announced along with the first sale of the application.

PocketFinder Laptop allows laptop owners to download software that turns their laptop into a personal location device with many of the same features and functionality of a PocketFinder device. When a laptop is connected to the internet via a Wi-Fi or cable connection it can be located remotely.

The company re-stated that they have started shipping working PocketFinder and/or PetFinder units to strategic channel partners in the international market. These devices are personal location devices designed to optimize the lives of parents, guardians and pet owners.

In our ever-mobile society, it helps to know where loved ones are and how we can best coordinate our interactions. This is especially true in the case of families with dual earners, in single parent homes, and for owners of adventurous pets. As stated in previous filings, the Company will look to raise additional capital for manufacturing and market entry expenses.

The company also demonstrated its newly developed User Interface designed for the trucking and freight monitoring industry.

This opportunity represents a great way to leverage a vast vertical market by applying the company's cutting edge PocketFinder Network with its smartphone and hardware applications to enhance the way commerce is moved, contain costs, and facilitate the delivery of goods to stores throughout the U.S. Cheaper, Better, Faster!

LoadRack.com (LRT) is positioning to be the premier provider of truck and load matching, with an industry first real-time asset tracking application. Their advanced application allows shippers, carriers, and truck brokers to optimize resources and coordination by procuring available trucks and loads, while ensuring load integrity across the supply chain.

Accessed via Internet, cell phone, or landline, the system allows users to determine load location and status, designate safe and unsafe zones and lanes, monitor load temperatures, facilitate route changes, and effectively manage equipment problems and delays.

The Company assisted LRT in building a dynamic, real time, internet-based system that will increase the efficiency of moving produce and refrigerated items; ensure the safety of fresh and frozen foods during transport; and will increase on time deliveries of foods and perishable products.

LBAS' associated vehicle/asset tracking application uses similar advanced technology to help businesses optimize their mobile resources (vehicles, equipment, sales forces, etc.) by providing location information that enables enhanced coordination and leveraging of assets.

The smallest known single-board GSM/GPS device can also be accessed via the Internet, cell phone or landline to show its location in real time.

In addition, the devices include several advanced features, such as allowing users to designate customizable alert areas as electronic "fences" to notify them when a device leaves or enters a specified area where a partial load is waiting for pickup or to coordinate delivery by rerouting around traffic problems.
