Afternoon all
I know there are a few free Free online GPS tracking services available online, has anyone used any with any success and has anyone used them with their mobile? (Ive got the Sony C905 btw)
Just after a bit of info as Ive got a few ideas for tracking my car.
Cheers
Stu

Are you going to stuff a mobile phone somewhere hidden in your car?

I can't think of any free programs atm but i've always thought of this.
It's much cheaper from what I can see to have a phone and payg sim.
Something as simple as google latitude would work actually.
You also get programs that you text the phone when it's been stolen and it reports the gps position via text, would work equally well for a car.

Just have it plugged in all the time.
Trackers are very expensive for what they provide, can do it with a phone much cheaper.

cant be that safe really can it?
would need hard wired hidden away
would also be quite easy to toss a phone/sim card out the car
Are you really just wanting to keep tabs on your other half? stalker
