E911 actually works, finds transplant patient at jazz festival – Engadget Mobile

E911 actually works, finds transplant patient at jazz festival – Engadget Mobile:

Luckily for him, his mother had a Sprint celly and the authorities where able to locate them while at a local jazz festival using the phones integrated GPS. Soon after being located, the boy was rushed to Children’s Hospital in Pittsburgh where the surgery was a success.

I wonder why they just didn’t call them, since they had to know their number, and also had to have a working phone with service to get E911 to work?

This story doesn’t make any sense.
