Abstract
This system tries to help handicapped people, although it can be used by anybody. It is designed to be used on a PDA, and it provides the following services: have a phone book, make outgoing calls, receive incoming calls, generate manual alarms, generate mobility alarms, locate user, and follow user’s condition. The user-friendly interface makes easier the use of these services, and consists of a Macromedia Flash Movie. The system is being proved now by real users and has very good approval in most cases. Now we are thinking of some improvements of the services developed.
