Purchase a security system (ie Burglar alarm) which has GSM dialout and 24 hour panic button facility.
Make sure the system has a standard input for the panic - you don't want one of those silly systems
which puts "panic button facility" on the label, and then expects you to push two keys on a keypad.
Wire up a simple pushbutton which you can buy at radio shack if you are extremely quick.
You may have to put an End-Of-Line resistor across the switch - consult someone who knows if that is the case.
The rest is pretty straightforward.
(GSM dialout means it calls your mobile/cell, 24 hour panic means a button which will send a signal even when the alarm is disarmed)
Sapphire has a lot of uses besides the purely cosmetic -
Perhaps the worlds biggest electronics innovator actually is targeting a future electronics requirement -
Better RF, better sensors
