Have you ever misplaced your keys or left your phone in the car? Well you’re not alone and I”m guessing half of America has as well. Wouldn’t it be great if there were a product that notified you when you got to far away from your keys or you cell phone. You’ll never leave your phone at a restaurant again if you’re packing The Wireless Leash by ZOMM.

This cool little keychain accessory acts as a hands free speakerphone for answering a call when on the road, alarming you when you’ve gotten too far away from your phone, and a quick call for 911 in the event of an emergency. I couldn’t believe this little piece of technology could do all that.

To accept an incoming call simply press the Z button one and your caller is on speaker phone. If your at the bank or in the drive thru and can’t take a call press the Z button twice to forward the call to your voice mail. These features are handy if your phone happens to be in your purse while your driving and its not save for you to reach to grab it. Most of us Gals know that is where your phone ends up right before you leave the house. Maybe your on an existing call on your Bluetooth capable smart phone and you need your hands free, simply tap the Z-button to transfer your call to the ZOMM. This is also the same instruction for transferring an outgoing call.

The ZOMM also acts as a panic alarm and can even place an emergency call. Be careful only to use it in the event of an actual emergency because the panic alarm can cause permanent hearing loss if placed too closely to the ear. The button has to be held for at least 9 seconds in order to sound alarm and holding it 5 seconds through the panic alarm will notify you of dialing emergency services.

You can customize your ZOMM using the app for android; however, it isn’t available on the android market yet. Instead ZOMM has a beta program that you can login to from their website. From the app your able to adjust your setting for battery life, distance of lease to phone you wish to be notified, as well as location you last left your keys. So their is more than enough features to make it worth your purchase of $89.99 or for the Pink ZOMM $99.99.

I feel this product could be a great gift for college students, elderly parents, or just anyone that you know of that forgets where they placed their phone or keys. Do you know of someone who would love the ZOMM?
