Cell Phone For Your Pet

Although I currently do not own a dog, there’s a new invention that I will definitely use when I adopt my next pooch. PetsMobility is manufacturing and will soon launch its PetsCell cellular telephone for pets. It sounds strange doesn’t it? Well, maybe not so much. It is a collar phone that straps right to Fido’s neck and will provide wireless communication between you and him.

PetsCell will be compatible with existing cellular and satellite GPS technology and allows you to talk to your pet. It uses Location Based Services (LBS) for you to communicate with your pet. You will have a piece of mind if your dog or cat gets lost. If someone finds him wandering the streets, with a push of a button, the auto dial feature will call to alert you to retrieve your pet. The GPS collar cell phone comes equipped with a durable waterproof case, LED battery and signal display, three programmable call buttons, call center button, ring indicator, interchangeable face plates, geo-fence capabilities and advanced mapping technology.

You can access your pet’s location either by contacting a customer service care center and speaking with a PetsMobility representative or through a voice activated response center. Over the phone, you enter in your personalized code and a computerized response is generated, informing you of your pet’s location.

With your special collar, you have the option to add a GPS tracking chip and a fiber optic camera for search and rescue operations. It can also deliver accurate location fixes, even with poor environmental conditions (i.e. indoor locations or dense urban surroundings). PetsCell can deliver you location fixes in real-time to your handset, pager or your computer (as long as it has an Internet connection). You have a choice on the mapping interface you use. It can either be imagery similar to Google Maps or standard map technology. You can also have it do automatic lost call alerts.

In addition to PetsCell, PetsMobility plans to execute other brand extended related products and services such as streaming media and various pet-related services (using their community website – www.petsmo.com - very cute homepage by the way) as the distribution platform for digital media.

The PetsCell will be available soon, within the first quarter of this year. PetsMobility will also shortly release the rate plan information and additional details about the device. Keep yourself posted at www.petsmobility.com.
