Great for a free application that is easy to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make sure that you go to the application manager, suite, and specify an internet connection for Trapster.Not sure how much the data the app uses when connected to the internet, but check your phone plan for data usage.charges..Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it takes off which I'm sure it will. Rob Johnson and many other cash grabbing nutters presently in power will be most displeased. Loaded in to the iPhone and apparently according to the Q&As on the site it uses about 6 mb a day if used regularly. I learned about bloody iPhones with a 6.5k bill from taking one to the UK last year without knowing what push data was. Moral theft IMHO. Anyway great little gadget and thanks for the tip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This evens up the score and I notice its been getting some press. I wonder what Brumby and co will do when they see how much of their theft money this thing will cost them, maybe that's why they want internet sensorship. If you don't have this GET IT?

Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 9m Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 16/02/10 10:14 PM Author Share Posted 16/02/10 10:14 PM Yeah, I read people are using it to avoid booze busses. While I do not agree with this use, it is good to see people are using the service.If 200,000+ people in each capital city used it frequently, the mobile cameras would not stand a chance.I am sure they would find a way to make the technoilogy illegal as soon as it affected the bottom line.

The newspapers will play up the "Using it for booze buses" garbage. It is going to be very hard to stop motorists and check everybodies mobile phones and we are too close to an election for any party to risk trying to steal away more rights and freedoms. If Krud the commo country and freedom destroyer gets back in it may be lost under the internet filter he wants to help keep the sheep docile. But I think too many people having woken up to his ETS and global warming crap to let that happen.I'm in Melb at the moment and Trapster is working well here, I just got another 12 notifications . 7 check points, 2 accidents, and 2 Live Police. I wonder what would happen to the crime rate if the police at the check points and live police driving patrol cars actually did some crime fighting? If you don't have this thing get it.

I wonder if it will have any real effect, since nearly all GPS now indicate where all the fixed ones are.I.B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
