GlobalSat TR-101 GPS phone for easily misplaced children

by Paul Miller, posted Jun 20th 2006 at 5:31PM

Thanks GlobalSat, we we're starting to think the worrying-parent market was drying up a bit. After that first wave of GPS kiddie phones hit, the feature set has been slowly sinking into the everyphone, which doesn't allow for that special self-importance that comes to a child owner of a stripped-down tracking phone. The TR-101 allows for calls to 3 preset numbers, and sends location data via SMS or over the Internet. It uses a full-on SiRF Star III chipset, and can be remote controlled via other phones or through Online software. There's also an SOS button for emergencies, Google Earth integration for visualisation, and quad-band GSM support to keep track of the little bugger all over the globe. No word on price or availability.

I hope they don't just market this for children. I mountain bike here in California, and there are plenty of out of the way places that have no regular cell reception. This would be great to have in case of a real emergency where I could not move, or needed help to come to my location.
