Globalsat has specialized themselves in GPS and Bluetooth products, therefore it will be very interesting for us to see how well this product will work, I have not personally seen anything like this on the market so I am very curious to see how well this product can perform.

You will get this in a small cardboard box with print of the device on it. Inside the box you should have a manual, usb cable, power cable and a battery ofcourse for the device.

The device itself is smaller than a cell phone, you have a black case on it and a brushed aluminum cover. It has six different buttons and three leds that show the gps status etc. The top left button you use to send the "emergency" sms with as they call it, hold down the button and it will be sent immedietly after holding it three seconds. The other programs can be programmed for your emergency numbers. The product can also receive calls which is a good thing in case you get lost.
