do you have to sign a contract for the spy tec mini portable real time gps tracker

No you don't, however in order to set up the device you have to use your visa to activate and they charge you a fee. My understanding in purchasing this was that the first month is free well its not. It only works in the US too

You will have to pay a monthly fee once the GPS device is activated. But it's not a long term contract, it's month to month. By the way, the device and service work great. I found it to be worth the money.

Yes, as far as I know, you need some sort of Garmin watch to be able to connect and track your runs.

It is considered a piece of hardware and didn't come with any long term guarantee so I don't believe you do register it! It has a fixed software chip inside and a CD was supplied with it. Updates for the CD are online and seem to be a paid product! I looked and there is a support for the CD computer software so that's all there is! View your CD..

Not in real time - that is you can see where it has been after you plug it into your computer. It does not send it's location to you when it is not attached. It is for reviewing where it has been instead of live tracking. Live tracking units are more expensive as they either require a broadband or cell phone connection. I believe you can find some that might connect to an open WiFi and send data - but that would be a sporadic update.In short If I understand your questions correctly: No. ;)

Spy Tec has mentioned back on the April 9th that they should have it for sale separately in about a week or so. http://forum.dashcamtalk.com/threads/marcus-1-or-3-anyone-got-them-in-stock-yet-shipping-to-usa.4886/#post-59201 Post # 15 here Also be aware that the GPS looks like it will not function until you install the newer firmware do to be released soon.

you don't need to have data service for gps work. this is stand alone gps, so no monthly charge for gps.

There is no contract necessary, but it is not plug and play. The instructions include a web site at AT&T; where you have to register the unit's serial number. You also have to register the phone numbers of users, up to 10, I think. I am not sure, but they might have to be AT&T; phones.

Yes that is exactly when it works, away from all connections. as long as you are outside and let it find sattelites, you will be able to use your map Programs. you may have to go to settings as it has to accept the Map program, then it will track onto your map on your tablet or phone, i personally use "Navigon Maps", and a Canadian topo map as well, good Luck, rick.m

No contract. It is the price of the phone you can use it with any GSM network or CDMA. All the best.

You have to use SpySpotGPS's service which I believe is Sprint based. They charge a $44.95 activation fee and then $24.95 per month there after. No data is needed for transmission it is simply tracking the devise and there software (SpySpot's) does all the displaying of the information/tracking.

No you do not have to buy a service, but it only comes with north america and canada maps, so you will have to buy the maps for the UK, from there you are good to go. there is no monthly service contract unless you want weather and traffic updates sent to your GPS device. I purchased mine for the same reason I will be living in london for the next six months.

Yes it is true.. You do have to pay for the updates.. Sad part is when you do run the update the stored info in the detector is sent back to Escort for them to use for the next updates.. In other words they get their info for free or I should say we pay them to take the info back since we pay for the service..

It's plug and go ... the GPS units that require a subscription are those that receive traffic updates (usually through a satellite radio provider like XM). The i5 is a basic navigation system, so it does not require any type of subsciption. The only type of subscription cost might be a yearly updated map, but you can decide when and how often you want to update.

The Amber Alert GPS does require a service plan. The GPS operates off of cell towers, just like a phone. I did not find the service plan to be particularly cheap -- it costs $29.99/month. For $9.99/mo the device will do a more limited range of things. I believe the device will work with either AT&T; or TMobile service plans. We purchased this device to use when our daughter skis. Because it uses cell phone technology, we had trouble with the device as AT&T; doesn't have good service on the mountain. So, make sure you have good cell phone coverage if you want this device to work properly.
