Ottawa, Canada, February 4th, 2008 - Mobile Knowledge (“MKC”) is pleased to announce that it has acquired the Think Fleet business from the Think Technology Group (TTG). Based upon the latest mobile GPRS devices, Think Fleet is field-hardened Taxi, Private Hire, and GPS Tracking Software.

Think Fleet provides drivers with powerful one-touch functionality including: intelligent GPS tracking; multi-stop pickups; automated ETA and job progress reporting; SMS alerting; fully integrated TomTom Navigator 6; A-Z mapping; voice prompts; context-sensitive menus; automatic waiting time calculation; signature capture; passenger feedback; configurable screens; emergency tracking; and much more. It is viewed by many in the industry as the most powerful
and driver-friendly PDA terminal available today.

Mark Chidlow, Managing Partner of Think Technology Group commented on the purchase, “We have enjoyed working closely with Mobile Knowledge over the last 4 years on several UK based projects. Mobile Knowledge’s XDS despatch software (used by both private hire and taxi companies) was one of the first integrations with Think Fleet. It will be rewarding to see Mobile Knowledge deliver this technology to its international base of customers.”

Kevin French, Chief Operating Officer with Mobile Knowledge praised TTG for their commitment to the for-hire industry and their innovation on the Think Fleet product, “TTG quickly recognized the potential for the smart-phones now being offered by major mobile phone operators. This portable off-the-shelf technology is becoming a viable alternative to traditional mobile data terminals in some countries due to the incentives being offered by the phone companies. Mobile
Knowledge is recognized as one of the most open minded suppliers to the industry and we believe that many customers will benefit from having a smaller, portable dispatch device for their vehicles. Mobile Knowledge will continue to market the Think Fleet product as an add-on to existing despatch systems and it will become the standard option for our own XDS and Cabmate products. ”
