Gps Portable Devices: The World In The Palm Of Your Hand


by Vernon Lloyd


GPS Chips have become so small and lightweight that they can be built into almost anything. For example, they can help safely and easily track your child's location. If your child runs off, whether he was distracted by something, merely forgot to tell you they are going to a friend's house, or just got lost in a crowd. With built-in GPS tracking chips you will know where your child is at all times, using your cell phone, laptop, or other portable devices to track him or her.

Built-in GPS chips are hooked into a system of satellites which allows accuracy to the meter in determining the position of whatever has a GPS Chip. They can be used to track kids, pets, cattle, property, and even yourself. And best of all, you'll forget its even there because its literally built-in!

Sometimes a difference of a few feet can mean the difference between a clear signal to the GPS portable receiver, and a weak or blocked one. The GPS portable receivers are often incapable of receiving signals if they are being used near tall buildings or under heavy canopies of vegetation. The GPS portable receivers can be used indoors, but only with the aid of an external antenna.

Other uses for built-in GPS chips are tracking your teenager to make sure he or she is safe and secure, and doing what he or she told you the plan was, with the people he or she said they'd be with.

It is important to mention that so far most GPS system in cell phone (telefone celular) is restricted to tracking information only. However, one can have navigational capability thru the use of full screen cell phone/PDA combos with map displays and other cellular phone accessories, and third party paid services. If one does not want to sign up for a monthly paid subscription service, he can make use of one-time-paid-only software programs that will enable some of the navigational capabilities.

Although there are many benefits in using GPS cell phones (telefone celular), there are some people who are concerned about the violation of personal privacy. Since the US Congress has not authorized location tracking without actual evidence of wrongdoing, there have been court hearings which have not approved the requests of government agencies in obtaining the cell phone GPS tracking information for suspects or ordinary citizens.
