Top Gadgets: Last-Second Gadget Gift Ideas

 

'Twas the night before the night before Christmas and all through the mist, procrastinators were scurrying for last-minute gifts. I've identified a half dozen gadgets to consider – even though you'll have only a picture of the gadget and a "Coming Soon" note to wrap. It IS December 23d, after all!

Great Call 5Star Urgent Response

Worried about a senior living alone – or maybe you're worried about living alone? This 1.8 ounce key fob from Great Call – they make Jitterbug, the best phone for seniors (my parents use one) – gives you one-button access to certified response agents 24/7/365 who are trained in CPR and other emergency protocols, will quickly identify you and where you are via GPS, assess your situation and dispatch the appropriate assistance. If needed, agents can conference in a 911 operator or your emergency contact and stay on the line with you until everything is copacetic. The fob is $50, the service is $15/month, no contract. Feel safer now?
