Who can use QUALCOMM Globalstar satellite phones?
One easy to operate, handheld satellite phone turns your backpack or field unit into a mobile office with full communication capabilities. Rescue teams and other early assessment personnel can communicate among teams and with headquarters. Teams can use satellite phones as an in-field communication center to coordinate development and relief efforts. Globalstar phones have already been extensively used by telecommunications companies in France for many applications, including Y2K contingency communications and emergency communications after damaging wind storms in December 1999. Emergency teams can also send vital data to each other by taking advantage of the portable satellite phones data and positioning capabilities. Access the Internet when connected to a computer or PDA, or take advantage of phone services such as position location*, short messaging service (SMS)*, digital facsimile and Caller ID. If you have a mobile operations center, consider the QUALCOMM Globalstar GSP-1600 Por
