[nfb-talk] trackR

[John Heim]

Anybody know anything about this TrackR thing? I have a problem with it 
because I heard about it from the dozen or so spam messages they sent me 
in the past week. As an email administrator, I'd hate to buy anything 
from a spammer. But I have to admit it sounds pretty good. According to 
their web site, they sell coin sized markers you put on things you want 
to keep track of. If you misplace the thing with the marker, you can 
find it with your iphone. You can also use the thing to make your iphone 
ring so you can find it.

I don't have too much trouble finding my iphone. If I set it somewhere 
and forget where, I walk around tapping keys on my blutooth keyboard 
until I find it. But I've been looking for a way to find my way back to 
my chair at a beach or to my cabin at a campsite for a long time. I'm 
thinking you could even use a thing like this to find your room in a hotel.
