| Does anyone make a gps tracking device ? What I mean is a transmitter you can put on something and have it send signals to you that tell you where it is ? |

Isn't there a website that tracks cell phones via google maps? Pretty sure there is. that way, you don't have to do jack, she uses her phone, and you see where it pops up on the map.
(Side Note Rant: I thought it was hilarious a few years ago when various phone makers started talking about how the phones could do stuff like that, and I believe there was a 'for The Children' push to use the 'tracking' service in the phones. people freaked, here especially, cause it was too big brother and evil. But, couple years later, everyone thinks it's cool as shit that their iPhone will take a pic, and up load it to google maps with GPS data. Uh...same shit, morans....) |

There are services that do this.
The transmitter is about as big as a pack of cigarettes, runs a couple months on batteries. Companies use these things on stuff they leave out at remote building sites––they hide them in vehicles, trailers, tractors, even big spools of wire and bundles of building materials. I don't know where does it or what it costs, but the things do exist. You might inquire at any large area construction firms. They won't say if they use any or not, but they'll certainly have heard of where to get them. ~ |
