Tracking device

Hi all

Just wondered if anyone has seen or has had experience of this new tracking device that's popping up just now, around 30 Dollars each from a company called trackR, it 'seems' flawless and I was thinking of ordering up a few. Far cheaper than insurance but obviously it doesn't cover fire etc, I think theft is probably our biggest enemy though. Just recently a guy near me had 3 RC planes stolen which is why my alarm bells ringing !!
Any advice would be grateful as I'm not sure of the best way to go, but these certainly look the business.

Cheers

Bryan.

Be careful, just bought one from Tesco for £5 but it's not all it's made out to be as it will only store the location it is in and has to be within Bluetooth range to access it's location on your phone. Just remember the device has to be able to connect to a network in order to transmit it's location to your phone.
