    Yep I payed for the device, the price was refunded totally in points to the card. I buy all the things I need with the rewards card because it’s sale tax free (oil, coolant, lights, gloves, etc.) refills and showers are free. It don’t take much data, I have a 1 gig plan and don’t see any increase in usage so far. I’ve read somewhere that it will only use bout 350 megs so I’m ok with the 1 gig plan. I’m looking online (amazon dot com, etc) but haven’t decided on a tablet yet. I kinda like having my logs with me wherever I am.

    I'll definitely check them out tomorrow.
    Can you edit your driving and what about logging 34 hr. Resets?
    I like the cards but I don't like the price or Bio Diesel.

    Nope can’t edit the driving line, it automatically gives you the reset after you are “off” for the appropriate amount of time .

    You're not supposed to unplug and then plug it back in. It should show different location via GPS, so how will you explain to DOT your "levitation" lol

    @Makeajump
    I checked it out, I didn't know, but my Loves card is not registered.
    So therefore it's only a base card, not diamond, gold or etc.
    The ELD can only be purchased cash, no points on card unless registered and an upper level.
    Thank you for the information, I might just buy it anyway.

    Anyone have an experience with the Blue Ink Bit ELD? My company originally went with the Garmin ELD but we are having so many issues its getting unbearable. (connectivity issues, malfunctions for no reason, support is horrible, the list goes on)
