'Panic Button' Feature Needed On Cell Phones

I have long wondered why cellphone manufacturers do not have emergency or 'panic' buttons on cellphones.

A clearly-marked button on the phone when pressed- located on the phone for instant access-would send out a signal or beacon until the battery was removed from the phone- much like emergency buttons on current police & fire radios.

I think this would be a very valuable device - especially when a person is being kidnapped and has few if any other options.
