Free Spot Devices!

Spot is doing it again! Another year of FREE Spot devices for the holidays! These GPS devices are some of our best selling products, and its no wonder.

The Spot Gen3 is perfect for winter sports like snowmobiling, back country skiing and hunting. A great gift for you and any other adventurers in your life! The Gen3 allows the user to send text and email messages from remote locations. These messages are customized to suit the situation, and usually range from ‘all-clear’ to ‘send help!’ There is also the option to send an SOS to a call center, which will alert authorities in your area in case of an emergency!

The Spot Trace offers the same service but for your toys! Simply mount the Trace to your vehicle, snowmobile or other equipment and it will notify you of any movement.  This device is perfect for outdoor recreation and for businesses who leave equipment in the field.

Spot is all about peace of mind! Aren’t the holidays stressful enough?

Microsoft for Mobile Devices

Earlier this month, Microsoft shifted to providing the Office suite free for mobile devices.[1] While this may not sound revolutionary, for those of us who live on our devices, it in fact is.

Many of us use Microsoft products in our everyday business and personal affairs. We are well versed in the features, understand the tools, and have no inclination to change. However, upon moving to a mobile device, users were previously forced to resort to Apple and Google offerings. Frankly, these products do not have the ease of use and universality of Microsoft Office.

The shift by Microsoft is especially welcome now that Google has moved to multiple apps for Google Drive, requiring the installation and use of 2 apps where one would easily suffice.

Aware of this situation, Microsoft has altered its previous paid model and allowed the products for free download to consumers (not businesses).[2] Microsoft’s motivation is apparently to ensure dominance of the Office suite across platforms.[3]

Office is available on the iTunes store and on Google Play.
