Teletouch Signs Duncanville Independent School District for VTrax(TM) GPS-Based Fleet Tracking; Solution Features Panic Button Alert Service For Bus Drivers.

TYLER, Texas -- Teletouch Communications, Inc. (AMEX:TLL), a U.S. leader in wireless messaging and communications today announced the signing of the Duncanville, Texas Independent School District ("DISD") for the "VTrax: Powered by Guidepoint(TM)" fleet tracking system, including emergency panic button alert response services. The DISD is a current customer of Teletouch's Two-Way Radio Systems group.

Teletouch recently began installation of the first group of VTrax units in the DISD's nearly 90-unit bus and van transport fleet. Authorized DISD managers and school personnel will have the ability to track monitored district vehicles online, through any available Internet connection, any time -- day or night. In addition, if an authorized manager can't get to Web access for any reason, Teletouch's 24/7/365 call center is always available for assistance in locating vehicles.

A special feature of the VTrax solution includes a hidden Panic Alert Button for drivers to activate if they or their passengers are in a dangerous or threatening situation. Once an alert is activated, a digital message is sent to Teletouch's call center for dispatch. Operators can then follow the vehicle's movements in real time, simultaneously calling 911, emergency response and the appropriate pre-approved school district personnel.

T. A. "Kip" Hyde, Jr., Teletouch CEO stated, "We are pleased to provide the VTrax solution with the panic alert feature for the Duncanville ISD. This advanced technology service is specifically designed for any potentially at-risk mobile resource. Our response center answers over a million calls per year, and is well equipped to provide complete emergency coordination services, when and if necessary. Plus, VTrax users may call for updates anytime if they are unable to get access online. We applaud the DISD for taking this proactive step on behalf of their students, parents and drivers."

The VTrax: Powered by Guidepoint fleet solution is targeted to small and mid-size enterprises with fleets of 2-to-200 vehicles. Designed with a "less is more" philosophy, VTrax offers the features most desired by small fleet operators, including ignition on/off and history reporting, stop reporting, and location-based tracking.

VTrax: Powered by Guidepoint is completely digital, and operates on the Cingular(R) GSM/GPRS/Edge nationwide network. Teletouch customers can reach the fleet services group by calling toll-free, 888-GPS-FIND (888-477-3463), or by logging on to http://www.teletouch.com/vtrax_login.htm.
