GPS.SOS! will try to get your current location, from internal GPS Receiver,
if satellites are invisible, GPS.SOS! plays a special sound that you have to move your phone
to some better place where they are recognizable.
You have free hands what is important in certain situations,
and when Recipient will decide to call-back, you will start to talk without touching the phone.
Recipient reads your location, as an ordinary text message,
and he can use any web browser to watch your location on any map service.
