Nokia Locate Sensor can keep track of all your stuff

Nokia Locate Sensor can keep track of all your stuff - read the full textThe Nokia Locate Sensor is a nifty little gadget that lets you keep track of your wallet, car keys, children (or even spouse?) within a range of 100 m by using a special application installed on your mobile phone. The Locate Sensor is still a prototype, but we really hope it'll leave the Nokia...

People that are hating on Nokia cause it's only 100 metres, well, as i see it, people that are more than 100 metres from their your house key is not lost, they are confused, they don't need this devise, they need a councelor and some professional help to get their act together.

Yup. An alarm is needed if item is about to get outside of coverage area. This can help to prevent items from being inadvertently forgotten at a store, office, etc.

this is a nice piece of kit, if the range was better it'd be great. If the chip was tracked by GPS it'd be awesome!!

Uhm, and after 100 meters? Then what? You still miss your stuff :S More range would be nice, but I dont see the use. Look at all the gadgets they made like click on camera's, the GPS add on for the communicators and so forth...

haha sorry for the first post thingy...
Btw, i do think the idea is nice and practical.
However, if the price is too expensive then might not be too feasible.
