» ReliRescue GPS Description
ReliRescue enables your Windows Mobile Phone to broadcast your location
to designated partners (over SMS or email).
Your location is obtained using Integrated or external (Bluetooth) GPS connected
to your device.
This utility also enables any Windows Mobile platform to feed the broadcasted waypoints
to track and locate the sender.
I use this utility to broadcast my location during Hang Gliding activities
to a ground personal (Reli - the software is named after
you...).
