A cell phone is great when you need a ride, but what if you have no clue where you are? Whether you’ve been enjoying a night on the town or a new town you’re not familiar with, the Wherifone combo GPS/cell phone will help your friends find you.
The Wherifone combines a GSM/GPS locator and a cell phone. Perfect for children and seniors, or just for someone that is a bit directionally challenged, this two-way cell phone has built-in aided-GPS location and “managed dial” features, which can control who a user can call and how much it will cost.
The Wherifone was recently honored as one of the CEA’s Innovations 2007 Design and Engineering Honorees. Voice and location services start at $19.95 per month.
