YET FOR PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION
Howdy!
As
you know, the technology center elves are busy preparing for
Day
to
n
.
We
finally have the base technology completed, and the cell phone pro
to
type is built.
As
advertised, the following features are the main elements of the phone:
- Powered
by the DOS 7.0 OS. Stable, reliable, and reprogrammable by the consumer.
Makes available the incredible features built in
to
the phone.
- 5G
capability. Fully backward compatible with 3G and 4G, but much more capable.
- Au
to
matic sensing of the various cell phone company pro
to
cols, so it will work on any of the cell phone systems, including foreign.
Will au
to
matically select the carrier affording the best signal, and will switch
between carriers, without loosing the connection!
- Equipped
with the
Technology
Center
proprietary “Snaggle
to
oth”. Totally compatible with Blue
to
oth, but far more capable. Does not need the interface
to
be built in
to
any display device, as it couples directly
to
the display’s microprocessor. So the consumer can display video, internet,
etc. on any nearby display device (ipad, flat screen, TV, etc.). Eliminates
the need for a built in display, and saves battery life!
- Last,
but not least, the access interface (rotary dial) is completely “user
friendly” requiring no learning curve. And is ergonomically friendly
to
the growing baby boomer generation that is loosing eyesight and having
trouble with finger dexterity, so they are being left out of the Smartphone
onslaught.
Read
on. You will be amazed by
what we have accomplished.
I solicit your ideas of any other features we should highlight, or offer in our
product. The
Technology
Center
public relations department is preparing the advertising posters, and brochure,
to
be handed out at
Day
to
n
. So we need your ideas.
Below
I offer several views of the
IOOK
Tech
Center
cell phone
to
be unveiled at HamVention 2011.
Above
is the phone’s POTS (Plain Old Telephone Service) configuration.
In
this configuration, the cell phone is used with the cradle, and the cradle is
plugged in
to
the wall telephone outlet. The cell phone’s DOS.7 operating system detects
the telephone company landline signal, and disables the cellular features,
leaving rotary dial capability only. However, while plugged in this way, the
cradle recharges the cell phone batteries. Should the landline telephone service
be interrupted, the DOS 7.0 OS au
to
matically reverts
to
cell phone operation, enjoying all the cell phone features described below.
One
attractive feature of this cell phone is that the ergonomic design focuses on
simplicity. There are no confusing screens
to
distract the user, and the numerals for dialing are extremely easy
to
recognize, a feature of importance for those experiencing reduced vision due
to
illness, or advancing age (as affects the large number of baby boomers flooding
our society).
For
advanced users, the phone’s “Snaggle
to
oth” interface (an IOOK Technology Center proprietary development, fully
backwards compatible with Blue
to
oth) allows the DOS 7.0 operating system
to
connect with any Snaggle
to
oth or Blue
to
oth enabled device (ipad, flat screen & associated computer, etc) for shared
display of video, internet, cellular apps, etc. Snaggle
to
oth is also 100% WiFi capable. In restricted circumstances all these
capabilities combine
to
allow use of any nearby television receiver as a display. For important email
and text message reception and transmission, dialing 999 enables the DOS 7.0
OS’s voice-
to
-text, and text-
to
-voice features, allowing the user
to
compose messages verbally. Should a display screen be available (as mentioned
above) all text material (received and transmitted) will appear on the screen.
Above
is the cell phone in its normal travel configuration. In this configuration, the
phone operates through its internal antenna. The
IOOK
Tech
Center
has proven that the superconducting internal antenna does not suffer (as do
other cell brands) of poor cellular connections due
to
how the phone is held. The cell phone is 5G enabled (fully backwards
compatible with 3G and 4G systems). The telephone cord is removable for
fully portable operation; however the POTS capability is available for use when
at a hotel or fixed QTH. The POTS capability without the cradle still
allows the cell phone
to
recharge. The owner can travel anywhere and recharge the phone while also
using it routinely. The DOS 7.0 operating system continuously moni
to
rs the cell frequencies in order
to
permit au
to
matic switchover
to
cellular use if the cell signal is stronger than the landline dial
to
ne detected through the telephone cord. It also senses the strongest
cellular signal (regardless of cell service carrier) and switches
to
that carrier au
to
matically, including foreign cell phone pro
to
cols). The user thus has access
to
Verizon, Sprint, or other carrier present.
Above
is the cell phone configured in its “extended range” configuration.
With the rubber duck antenna, cell communication ranges are extended, as receive
and transmitted signals of the phone are increased by 9 db, allowing
considerable improvement in cellular connectivity in poorly covered cell areas.
All the operating advantages of the DOS 7.0 OS (Snaggle
to
oth, WiFi, ) are in operation in this mode.
Pictured above is the cell phone with its RG58 pigtail (included in the premier
package). This is the cell DX configuration.
This
is truly a revolutionary capability, available only through the
IOOK
Technology
Center
. The pigtail allows the user
to
connect
to
any available DX antenna. As the DOS 7.0 OS senses a complex impedance
different from the rubber duck, the internal au
to
matic antenna tuning system immediately adjusts for an SWR of 1.3 or less, at
the cellular operating frequency detected by the antenna. Snagle
to
oth senses the operating characteristics of the cellular network (CDMA, UDMA.
Etc) or networks received. The OS interprets the received spectrum and
identifies the country or countries accessed through this DX feature, and
announce them
to
the opera
to
r (through dialing 666 on the rotary dial). In this manner, the opera
to
r can communicate directly with the selected cellular network in the country
accessed through DX.
Last
but not least, above is the cellular phone in its extended range
configuration, equipped with the phone’s DC mobile charger. This
configuration provides the maximum flexibility for the frequent traveler.
The cell phone’s OS adjusts the phone
to
accept 6, 12, 24, and 48
V
DC
for charging the phone. Therefore the phone can be recharged while
driving a vintage au
to
, normal au
to
mobiles, a variety of hybrid and all electric cars, as well as general aviation
platforms. Obviously, by swapping the corresponding attachments (antenna,
line cord, etc.) the phone remains usable while charging.
