A mobile computing device for fleet telematics including a display and a controller configured to present at least one telematics application to a user. In an exemplary embodiment, the application is a verified inspection application, and the device includes an RF coil for an RFID reader that substantially extends along a perimeter of a housing for the device. In a related embodiment, the device includes an indicator light disposed along a perimeter edge of the housing, generally adjacent to the RF coil, the indicator light providing a user an indication of how to orient the device in order to enable the RF coil to interact with an RFID tag. The device can be configured such that the indicator light is only enabled when the inspection application is running. The device can include a flashlight and/or a digital camera, where the device is similarly programmed such that the flashlight and/or camera can only be enabled when the inspection application is running.
