Helio Drift - a GPS-enabled cellphone

The Drift is a Samsung-made mobile phone for Helio, a cellphone network by California-based Earthlink and Korea-based SK Telecom.




Using the built-in GPS, the Drift gives access to Google Maps™ for mobile. View your location on a map and get detailed step-by-step directions how to reach any destination. Move a map by dragging it across the screen and zoom in and out of a location. View maps and/or satellite images. Check real-time traffic. Find local businesses and their contact information through the integrated search engine.

With Buddy Beacon, you can broadcast your location to up to 25 friends - they'll see it displayed with your nearest address. You can also use the Buddy List to SMS people, e.g. to tell them to activate their Buddy Beacon, so that you can see where they are as well.
