-- CalAmp (NASDAQ: CAMP), a leading provider of

New products include:

flexibility of GSM/GPRS wireless communication along with
highly sensitive GPS, a powerful processing engine and a
triple-axis accelerometer that detects and communicates driver

Built on CalAmp's scalable hardware and device management
platform suite, each product employs the Company's
PEG™ on-board alert engine and processing environment as well as
PULS™ over-the-air device management and maintenance application.
These pioneering systems allow customers to leverage one
platform to manage their entire portfolio including remote
firmware updates regardless of the vehicle type or use case.
