Cell phone panic: This alerts you if you’ve left yours behind
special to the Times
Bzzz, flash, screech — that’s your cellphone being left behind.
Well, actually, that’s the new Zomm Wireless Leash ($99.99), a little round keychain-sized device that, when activated, uses Bluetooth technology to detect and sound an alert if you and your Bluetooth-enabled cellphone become separated by 20 to 40 feet.
A built-in panic button lets you initiate a piercing alarm and auto-dials 911.
