Networkcar, a Reynolds and Reynolds company announced that it has won a 2003 Mobile Star award from MobileVillage for its Networkfleet fleet management system. MobileVillage says it is a market development company dedicated to advancing mobile and wireless enterprise computing within select vertical market segments. Winners were selected by readers of MobileVillage's bi-monthly Go Mobile® newsletter and presented in 45 wireless technology categories ranging from very specific wireless software and hardware innovations to healthcare and data security applications. Networkfleet was recognized in the GPS/Location-Based Services category along with Motorola for its VIAMOTO(tm) cellular telephone software suite.

Networkfleet is compatible with virtually all light and medium-duty vehicles manufactured since 1996. Diagnostic and location data can be easily integrated with existing fleet management applications.
