In Recent Years, The Increased Demand For Improved 911 Emergency Calling Capabilities Has Pushed Forward Cell Phone GPS Tracking Technology. Reports Have Noted That This Leap Was Actually Stimulated By The 911 Twin Tower Attack In The US. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Had Then Released Orders Just Last Year Requiring All Cell Phone Carriers To Provide The Ability To Trace Cell Phone Calls To A Location Within 100 Meters Or Less.In Order To Comply With These Requirements Set By The FCC, Most Cell Phone Carriers Have Decided To Integrate The GPS Technology Into Their Cell Phone Handsets. Many Have Considered This Move Rather Than Overhauling The Tower Network. However, The Cell Phone GPS Tracking In Most Handsets Is Not Like Those In Your Handy GPS Receiver Which Allows You To Take Hiking In The Outback. Most Cell Phones Even Do Not Allow The User Direct Access To The GPS Data. There Are Even Some Units That Accurate Location Data Is Only Recorded If An Emergency Call Is Made Or If Special Arrangements Are Considered With A Location-based Service Provider (LBS).Well, There Is Still Hope For The Cell Phone Carriers To Be Able To Avail The Cell Phone GPS Tracking Services. In Fact, There Are Now Fully GPS-enabled Phones That Can Be Used In Conjunction With Third-party Location-based Services. To Mention But A Few, These GPS-enabled Phones Include Nokia, Motorola, And Beneflon.Lets Take A Look At These Cell Phone GPS Tracking Solutions One By One.NokiaIt Is Worth Noting That Recently, Nokia Plans To Make Their Xpress-On GPS Optional Hardware Available To North American Owners Of Nokia Model 5140 Phones.
