Discover Code Factory's powerful, flexible and innovative GPS solution at the
North American Summer conventions
Terrassa (Barcelona), June 30, 2008
Mobile Geo, the first GPS for the blind and visually impaired for mainstream
Windows Mobile Smartphones and PDAS, will be shown at the NFB and ACB
conventions. Scheduled for release in late summer, 2008, Mobile Geo will be
sold at a price of $895. If you are in the USA or Canada, don't miss the
opportunity to get a discount: Preorder before September 1, and get $100 off
the retail price. Moreover, you can get your company, school, agency or
organization to place a request along with the preorder to evaluate a
prerelease demo build in July.
Why is Mobile Geo unique?
Unlimited Hardware compatibility
Mobile Geo is a software application that can be installed on more than 400
different models of mainstream Windows Mobile devices. Just some of the most
popular include the HTC S710, HTC Fusion and HTC Advantage, the Motorola Q and
Q9 phones, the HP iPAQ 500 and HW6900 series, the AT&T Tilt and Samsung
Blackjack II, the T-Mobile Dash, Wing and Shadow, the PPC-6800 Mogul and Palm
Treo 700WX from Sprint, the XV6800 and SMT-5800 from Verizon, as well as dozens
of devices from Bell, Telus and Rogers Wireless in Canada. You can buy your
smartphone or PDA and Bluetooth-compliant GPS receiver at your local
electronics or telephone store and benefit from the latest technologies
implemented by leading mobile device manufacturers. If you choose a compatible
mobile phone with a built-in GPS receiver, you will have all of what you need
in one device and be free to travel anywhere without having to carry many
hardware components. Explore your world with what you already carry with you -
your phone.
Powerful and Intuitive
Mobile Geo is simple, convenient and powerful. You can:
a.. pinpoint your location and, if you wish to be reminded of it in the
future, mark it as a point of interest (POI),
b.. learn about the POIs and intersections in your immediate vicinity while
exploring that vicinity virtually on the GPS map,
c.. plan a route between specified points of origin and destination without
having to walk the route first in order to record it and then use it next time,
d.. determine the pedestrian or vehicular route between two places, or just
get announcements about your current heading and distance to your destination
as you approach it, and
e.. get instructions on maneuvers to make as well as information about
waypoints along a route that you are following.
A truly worthwhile investment
Activated by Code Factory's unique User-Centered Licensing system, the license
to use the product can easily be transferred from one device to another anytime
and at no extra cost. This allows a Mobile Geo user to upgrade to the latest in
mainstream mobile technology whenever he/she likes, rather than when it is made
available by a specialized vendor, as well, of course, as allowing the
replacement of a broken or stolen device at little or no cost.
Flexible and practical
Through seamless integration with Code Factory's leading screen readers for
Windows Mobile, you can use Mobile Geo with speech output in different
languages and route speech to a Bluetooth headset, or access it through input
and output on more than 15 different Braille devices. You can perform commands
using just the hardware keys available on the device as well as direct but
simplified access to the Pocket PC touch screen, without need for extra
hardware to make it usable. Further, you can use your mobile device for reading
books, browsing the internet, listening to music, sending and receiving calls
and messages, and for personal information management, while Mobile Geo runs in
the background and provides information about the route you are following.
Mobile Geo gives you the benefit of an accessible GPS solution and is
compatible with mainstream mobile devices. However, everything has been
designed, from the very beginning, for the specific needs of blind users and
blind pedestrians. Powered by GPS and mapping technology from the award-winning
Sendero Group, Mobile Geo benefits from all the know-how of Sendero's acclaimed
GPS product line, which powers the GPS solutions on many other devices,
including the very popular BrailleNote GPS.
