The original HomePatrol 1 has been an all-time best-seller, a scanner loved for its ease of use and terrific color touch-screen user interface.

Once your Zip Code is entered, HomePatrol-2 will load Police, Fire and EMS channels in your area and all other services are available too.

So basically, they took the home patrol, brought it up to trunk tracker V, and gave it a new name so they could sell basically the same scanner over again. Maybe they should put some effort into getting their current products (i.e. the siren app) working before they start releasing new products

Or some firmware updates to improve their recently released 436/536HPs......
