In a recent New York Times article, the father of Etan Patz, a boy who disappeared in 1979, called for every child to have an emergency cellphone on them at all times.
His comments came after the murder of 8-year-old boy, Leiby Kletzky, in Brooklyn last week.
Mr Patz said although the boy “had rehearsed the route [home] with his mother, he didn’t make the correct turn, then realized he was lost and had to ask for directions.”
He was never seen alive again.
With the aid of SafeKidZone this sort of tragedy could have been avoided.
A common misconception is the Panic Button is only useful in an emergency. However, it has many practical and preventative uses as well.
If for example your child get’s lost, he can hit the panic button on the phone which sends emails and text alerts to the emergency contacts along with a GPS location. It will also connect the child to a call center.
The call center can connect your child with you. Knowing exactly where he is you are able to either pick him up or direct him out of danger.
Texas Fire Chief, Randy Corbin, who recently trialled our product recognized many uses for it.
“I know from my personal experience that the most vulnerable populations are the very young and the very old. Many times these groups just need a little assistance, guidance, or reassurance, and don’t need to call 9-1-1,” he said.
“Parents and caretakers also need to know that everything is [okay] with those they are responsible for. Your system provides that.”

Cute as cute can be. A precocious 2-year old kept 911 dispatchers tied up for over 10 minutes in Crawford County, AR on a cell phone that was completely shut off. One of the dispatchers was finally able to coax the little girl into handing the phone to her dad to see about putting strawberries on her ice cream. You can hear the dispatchers in action 



This is exactly what often happens when a person experiencing an emergency decides to call 911 for help.
Calgary, Alberta, Canada wants to locate 911 cell phone calls. As it reads in this 
You may be asking yourself, “what’s a Symbian?” Well, if you have a non-smartphone, chances are that Symbian is the software that makes your phone work. So your Motorola Krazr, Nokia phone, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, LG phone etc most likely is a Symbian phone.
