THIS is the key issue...last i heard the NYC-GPS unit cost is $800 each.....as usual the working guy & gal gets it without the KY jelly by the bureaucrats once again, who stuff their pockets... Q-who owns the system when the cab is junked...the fleet-owner or the driver...????.

" ....The real outrage is that the drivers are being made to pay for the installation and monthly operating costs while not sharing in the advertising revenue being generated..... And that is where the promoters of this new technology have erred. Had they developed their business model around capital funding recovered through advertising revenue, and maybe only passed on a nominal monthly operating fee, New York would have both happier cab drivers and passengers......"

Ward: The other issue is installing a credit card machine. It's a matter of costing them money if people use a credit card to pay their fare. They're only calling for a 1 day strike.

The GPS issue is one of their privacy.

People usually complain when a product will catch their cheating, skimming money, not reporting a fare, With this device they will know everywhere they go and if their is gaps company will know why. I'm sure there is a lot of theft.
