GDP-02: User-Friendly GSM Desktop Phone
Telecoms can benefit by marketing the phone as a landline replacement or by creating cellular-to-cellular tariff plans to expand market share.
The GDP-02 Combines the Advantages of Using a Traditional Phone with Standard Mobile Phone Features
GSM Communications
The GSM Desktop Phone does not connect to conventional landline telephone systems. Instead, it communicates over GSM cellular networks. Users can operate the phone wherever there's an AC outlet and a network signal: In a dorm room, in a hotel room, in the office, in a community center, at home, in a resort, or in an RV/caravan.
The GDP-02 is a complete solution for communication over cellular networks in areas where traditional copper-wire landlines are not available, where signal range and voice quality cannot be delivered through handheld cellular phones, or where landline fees are more expensive than cellular telephony fees. Although GSM network provider plans vary from country to country, a number of consumers can benefit from a savings on international mobile-to-mobile calls as well as local mobile-to-mobile calls.
Practical Design
The GDP-02 is an easy-to-use desktop cellular phone that has been engineered for convenience. A large QWERTY keyboard makes text messaging a breeze. A large illuminated and adjustable LCD display allows for clear reading of text messages and faster software menu navigation. The GDP-02 is designed with a desktop-sized numeric keypad and intuitive hot keys for quick access to often used features (missed calls, contact phonebook, incoming messages, text writing, redialing). All keys are clearly labeled on the base unit with easy-to-understand icons for a more user-friendly interface and greater productivity. An accessible SIM cardholder is located at the rear of the machine. To install a SIM card, simply press the eject button and the SIM cardholder slides out; no need to fuss with removing batteries and battery covers to reach the SIM card.
Mobile phone users concerned about radio wave emissions from mobile phone antennas will be delighted to discover that the GDP-02 has an internal antenna, which is at a much greater distance from the user's brain than in traditional mobile phones, thus greatly reducing the user's exposure to electromagnetic energy. And an internal electromagnetic coupler device has been installed to dampen electromagnetic static and reduce background noise for crisper, cleaner calls.
Standard Desktop Phone Features
For late adopters of technology the GSM Desktop Phone is a very practical solution because it has been designed to look and operate just like a standard desktop phone: pick up the receiver and dial a number to make a call, hang up the receiver to end a call. The phone has both audible and visible indicators to clearly show when the phone is ringing. It is equipped with a large numeric keypad for easy dialing and easy number typing, a speakerphone for hands-free communication, a standard corded receiver, automatic redial, mute, programmable speed dialing keys, and one-touch volume control. The GDP-02 also comes with a built-in internal backup battery for safety in the advent of a power outage and its rechargeable so users can also operate the phone on battery power for up to 30 minutes.
Standard Cellular Features
With the GDP-02 GSM Desktop Phone consumers now have the freedom of using a traditional phone with standard mobile phone features. The GDP-02 operates over a normal GSM network and supports 900/1800 MHz dual band GSM frequencies. It comes with sensible cellular features such as call register, call divert, call waiting, caller ID, SMS messaging and archiving, assigned ringing tones and a phonebook that can hold up to 200 contact names and numbers. And with the GDP-02 users can quickly insert their mobile phone's SIM card into the GDP-02's SIM cardholder and import or export a mobile phone's address book to and from the desktop cellular phone. The GDP-02 also provides PIN security for controlled access and multiple language support.
