About GPS phone and how to select a GPS tracker
GPS will play a large role in the future of cellphones. The U.S. government has mandated that calls placed by cellphones to 911 emergency operators must reveal where the call was made, just like landline telephones. This new program works by either triangulating a mobile phone’s position via cellular phone network antenna towers or with a GPS receiver built into the cellphone that transmits its location. In 2003, the first GPS ID Card enabled cellular phones started to appear on the U.S. market. Internet sites and tracking software are available that can provide you with the location of a GPS-enabled phone that’s subscribed to a location reporting service. As GPS phone start to become more common, it’s only a matter of time before navigation and map programs start to appear on the phones, which will bring a whole new meaning to using your phone to get directions.
