), a leading provider of wireless security solutions and sensor networks that monitor, track and secure assets in the supply chain, was featured in a September 29 article in the Wall Street Journal, front page Marketplace section.

The article highlighted the MiniBOSS(TM) solution and how the advanced technology is being used to prevent the growing cargo theft problem in the United States. Based on FBI statistics quoted in the article, retailers lose 10 to 15 billion dollars a year from cargo theft. Losses skyrocket to 60 billion dollars annually when including insurance claims, investigation and consumer costs. The article expressed additional concerns from a US Government official in that profits from cargo theft are being used to fund terrorist organizations.

Bulldog's recent 500 unit MiniBOSS(TM) installation for Barnes & Noble was highlighted as well as a successful sting operation where the MiniBOSS(TM) was used by the New Jersey State Police Cargo Theft and Robbery Unit. Detective Sergeant Michael McDonnell, an avid proponent of the MiniBOSS(TM), was featured and quoted in the story.

The MiniBOSS(TM) is a compact and portable (4"x 3"x 2" in size and weighing 6 ounces) device housed in a durable case and includes a rechargeable battery. It is a cellular-based AGPS AGPS Assisted Global Positioning System

Because the MiniBOSS(TM) operates on the gpsOne platform, its signal-receive sensitivity is greatly increased over traditional GPS platforms. gpsOne uses cellular tower triangulation triangulation: see geodesy.

 in conjunction with GPS satellites to provide position location capabilities in severely impaired RF environments. This increased functionality allows the MiniBOSS(TM) to work in environments that traditional GPS can not. The MiniBOSS(TM) does not need to "see the sky" to determine location like traditional GPS systems and no external antennae is necessary. Thus the MiniBOSS(TM) can transmit and determine accurate positions inside steel containers, trailers, warehouses, parking garages, and buildings.

"The Wall Street Journal Article further demonstrates verifiable demand for the MiniBOSS(TM) solution. Our initial sales to Argix Direct and Barnes & Noble have proven that this state-of-the-art technology is commercially deployable. Bulldog is currently closing opportunities from the retail, pharmaceutical and high-tech industries. This is an exciting time for Bulldog Technologies and we are looking forward to explosive growth in the upcoming year," concluded Richard Booth, VP of Sales and Marketing for Bulldog Technologies.
