Zoombak Demonstrates New Universal A-GPS Locator at Digital
Experience @ New York
Company Presents Latest Personal Locator Technology to Digital
Lifestyle Media
NEW YORK (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) June 25, 2008 --
Zoombak (www.zoombak.com) today
demonstrated its full-line of Advanced A-GPS locators to industry
analysts and members of the major technology and consumer press gathered
at the Digital Experience @ New York new product showcase. Featured at
the event was the company’s newest digital
lifestyle product, the Zoombak™ Universal
A-GPS Locator, which is the latest addition to the company’s
industry-leading portfolio of assisted global positioning services
(A-GPS) locators.
Small enough to be placed in a car, backpack, briefcase or attached to a
bicycle or a dog’s collar, Zoombak Advanced
GPS locators combine the coverage of cellular networks and the power of
satellites to provide consumers with the most accurate, real-time
location information available. As the only A-GPS locator technology
available nationwide at leading consumer electronics, pet and automotive
retailers, Zoombak enables consumers to easily monitor and stay
connected to many of their most precious possessions.
“People today are seeking new ways to
effectively balance the demands of their busy lifestyles with their
family responsibilities,” said Zoombak’s
CEO Simon Buckingham. “With Zoombak, consumers
now have a powerful and easy-to-use tool that can help them find peace
of mind by knowing that they can be connected to many different valued
possessions, including their cars, and therefore the loved ones in them,
even when they are out of sight.”
With Zoombak’s secure, interactive website,
users set up custom safety zones around virtually any location including
homes, parks, malls and schools. Once activated, if the device crosses a
virtual boundary, the owner will receive a text message or email
promptly alerting them to the location of the device. Owners can also
locate their device by logging into Zoombak.com, sending a text message
from their mobile phone (coming soon) or contacting Zoombak’s
live 24x7 customer care location support. Zoombak’s
advanced A-GPS locators start at $199 plus a low cost monthly service
plan and are available at Circuit City, PetSmart, J&R, Amazon.com and
Bestbuy.com.
