Smart-ICE - It Talks for the Patient!

Learn more about how smart-ICE can be such an enormous help to those of us with Smart Phones that wish to take advantage of the latest in cell phone technology and make it work to your advantage when it comes to personal safety.
We encourage you to check this article out - short and to the point. Just like ICE.
Developers Tim Green and Wil Craport are featured in this trade article describing their innovative ICE products available through Apple i-Tunes.
As more and more people learn about smart-ICE the more they like it. So much so that ICE4SAFETY has had to take legal action against others hoping to cash-in on the success of these products by infringing on the trademarked image ICE4SAFETY licenses the developers to use.
So if your business has an innovative way to use ICE just know we protect the mark and you if you are properly licensed - and if you mistakenly decide to infringe on the trademark using a look alike - know that we will take aggressive and swift legal action against you.
Plan on using this product if you have an I-Phone/ I-Pod and coming soon to Blackberry and others....it is the best and one all the others try and copy - we can prove that.

What Works and What Doesn't!


When you are good - people copy what you do - some do it badly as we have see with ICE applications and other ICE safety related products......some real badly.
ICE4SAFETY went to OHIO to this past week to review the introduction of the new iPhone application and saw first hand how smart-ICETM works (and how some others did not).
This application is awesome - easy to use, intuitive, logical and has plenty of features that make it work in so many useful ways to help save you life if called upon. It was designed by a fella who was in that very situation.....and has a passion for making sure this works for everyone.
We have shared that same passion here at ICE4SAFETY for some time which is why we do what we do - we have worked the street and are now giving back to the communities we once served.
It sometimes is troubling to see people making claims about safety that they cannot back up - like these merchants claiming to provide free ICE Cards and other items.......we've been doing it for years.
Please - don't settle for junk.
Take a few extra moments and evaluate all the aspects of your purchase and how it can be used - and what support you have. We mentioned this in earlier blogs.... we don't have any guys in white lab coats running around claiming to be doctors promoting the ICE products - we don't need to.
We spent considerable time working and updating this and all the other applications for ICE and will continue to do so.
Next week we anticipate the introduction of the family version of this application!
Remember: Never rely on any one device or method to ensure your safety - think redundancy!

Another Phone Update - Apple Touch Screen Devices

In response to some inquiries about Apple products.....ICE4SAFETY stopped in to chat with two wireless consultants - James and Joshua at the AT&T Store in Shoppingtown. We learned about the latest touch screen phones also know as iPhones.

Apple also is the maker of another non-phone PDA-like and Wi-Fi Internet Access device known as the Ipod Touch. The Touch is a pretty slim unit capable of fitting in your shirt pocket. Despite not being a phone, it can store vital emergency contact information as well.

The original IPod is a non-phone/scroll wheel affair that stores music (iTunes) and video.

The IPod Touch and iPhone update their contact lists via a direct "synching" with a computer email program (Mac or PC). Synch is tech speak for "update". You can also update manually at any time too using your finger....the touch screen keyboard being infinitely more friendly than your cell phone.

You can create contact folders on the Touch and I-Phone and associate a picture or icon (ICE) with the contacts. You will need to update or synch the ICE4SAFETY Image into your devices or capture the image from the website (http://www.ice4safety.com/).

Latest software updates in January 2008 allow users to create new icons or widgets on your HomeScreen and place any four onto the Docket (see above)at the bottom of the screen. By creating an ICE Widget or Icon and placing it in the "docket" it will be displayed on all of your homescreens (you could create up to 8).

Update that ICE folder with contact information by manually inserting numbers into the list. You can rename each entry to reflect the order or type of contact - ICE1, ICE2, ICE DoctorSmith etc. If you have the earlier software you would need to access the existing "Contact" Icon or Widget on your home screen and enter a contact name using AA Emergency Contacts. The touch screen phones will list the contacts alphabetically by either first or last name.....you can select how using the set up menu option (e.g. Mark Smith or Smith, Mark). These entries scroll and can be longer than phone entries as the screens are larger.

New iPhones have 16 Gigabytes of memory - plenty of room for storing a photo of the owner (You) and the ICE icon as well. Remember - Redundancy....don't rely on this device alone.

If you might find yourself trying to use one of these someday - you should take a few moments to see one in action at the Apple link below...it is short and sweet.
