Ios and android have several tracking programs. Can somebody program one for Maemo/Meego ? I will give many many thanks !
it just so happenss that I bought one a couple of weeks back
to evaluate for tracking a small fleet.

The tk102 is little more than attractively packaged rubbish.
Firmware, connectivity, even the boot process gps lock
are hopelessly stupid.

that said,
However,...

I am stuck with this unit and will look into
making it work in SMS mode
(GPRS mode is a futile waste of time and fraught with frustration.)

will let you know here on this thread how it works out.

cheers
