If you are rather forgetful (like me), and sick and tired of misplacing important items like a phone, keys, or wallet then this could be the gadget for you. Guaranteed to bring an end to those dizzy retracing your step moments, the Cobra Tag is a smart piece of kit.
This loss prevention gadget uses a Smartphone app coupled with Bluetooth technology to a small key fob to monitor the distance between the phone and the Cobra tagged item. A user must first download the Cobra Tag app to their Smartphone, after that simply tag your item with the Cobra and away you go.
Other features to the Cobra Tag are that it can record GPS details of where and when the tagged item got separated from the phone. This data can be sent to the user via email, text message, or even to an individual’s social network, e.g. Facebook.
Before you ask what happens if you lose your phone, don’t worry the designers have already thought of that. Simply, press the button on the key fob and the Smartphone will ring allowing you to determine its hiding place.
Watch this space, expected release date is July 2011 and estimated price is $59.99.
