J.J. Keller Partners with Verizon to Provide E-log Tablet

J.J. Keller & Associates Inc. said it has partnered with Verizon Wireless to offer a tablet with electronic logging software built in.

The regulatory compliance firm said the tablet is a 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 connected to Verizon’s network and is about the size of a paper logbook.

The tablet is equipped with a pre-programmed roadside inspection mode that displays only the last seven days of logs, allowing drivers to hand the tablet to enforcement officers with no security concerns, according to J.J. Keller.

The company said the tablet is locked down, preventing drivers from loading nonapproved applications, and it also is inoperable while the vehicle is in motion.
