Mambo GPS phone from Falcom

Story posted on: February 13, 2007. Filed in: others.

Falcom of Germany has unveiled a personal GPS tracker that doubles up as a tri-band GSM/GPRS cellphone as well. Don't expect all the bells and whistles that come with most multimedia-intensive cellphones these days as the Mambo targets the more utilitarian crowd. In addition to the 20-channel SiRFStar III GPS receiver, you get Bluetooth connectivity and a special alarm button for use in emergencies. Pressing the alarm button will cause the Mambo to send your current position via GPS as well as perform a voice call to a pre-programmed number over the GSM network. Pricing details are still unknown.
