Mileage Tracking for Blackberry® - MyMileageGenie

The application uses autonomous GPS technology built right into the Blackberry® Smartphone. MyMileageGenie promises to simplify logging business travel (miles or kilometers) when using a personal vehicle, and eliminate having to fuss with old paper logs or spreadsheets.
Blackberry® users download MyMileageGenie on their SmartPhone (or deploy company wide using mobile data services on their BES) and simply “Punch In” at the beginning of the day, and “Punch Out” at the end of the day.
MyMileageGenie automatically stores the data on the device, and once a month (or when ever you want), you send yourself a report that looks like an invoice via email. The report can then be submitted for reimbursement.
Blackberry® owners can download and try MyMileageGenie free for 14 days. Corporate Trial extensions are available. At the end of the 14 day trial the user is given the option of purchasing a license key for $59.95.
Mobile professionals, who rely on using their personal automobiles for business, know all to well the pain associated with having to track their mileage and complete their “Expense Reports”. MyMileageGenie promises to simplify tracking, and creating expense reports related to automobile use.
In order to have the application to work past the 14-day trial, you will need to purchase a license key here. Download the fully functional FREE 14-day trial:

Mileage tracking
<!--[if !vml]--><!--[endif]-->When using MyMileageGenie for tracking mileage, users have the option create either manual or automatic entries. For automatic entries, the application starts its GPS odometer, using the BlackBerry's built-in GPS antenna or an external Bluetooth GPS antenna. When arriving at his/her destination, the user presses a button, adds an optional description and comments and saves the data securely on the device, ready to be reported when the user wants to.
Time tracking
Keeping track of time has never been this easy: with a press of a button, MyMileageGenie can start a timer that can run in the background, allowing users to still use their BlackBerry for all purposes. When done with the work at hand, the user presses another button and indicates whether the particular entry is billable or not. MyMileageGenie' time registration functions are ideal for consultants, project managers, project workers, lawyers or anyone else who needs to keep track of their time for administrative or billing reasons. MyMileageGenie even assists in making project related costs and revenues visible, by allowing entry of hourly costs and billing rates and making all related calculations available for reporting.
Expense and cost tracking
MyMileageGenie's expense tracking features are ideal for keeping track of billable and non-billable expenses. Users can now simply store them on their BlackBerry and report them, together with their mileage and time data. MyMileageGenie is a simple but powerful solution for any mobile user regularly making business expenses.
Location tracking
As an added function, MyMileageGenie offers a straightforward and low-cost location tracking function. When turned on, the application sends out an E-mail containing the current location of the user to one or multiple E-mail addresses. The time interval that E-mails are sent at is configurable to the minute. Every location tracking E-mail contains a Google Maps and a BlackBerry Maps link, allowing the recipient(s) to quickly view the user's current location. Additionally, the E-mail contains XML data with the current location details, allowing for easy processing into any backend system, for a multitude of applications.
Reporting
MyMileageGenie comes out of the box with extensive reporting functions. With over 30 fields that can be included in reports, varying from costs and revenue to profit and loss made on a specific activity, as well as the currency used, the applicable time zone, and much more.
