>>Actually depends who pays the bills in the house - if his wife has Verizon Chaperone activated (or whatever its equivalent other cell providers), his wife can tell if he is in some expensive restaurant with a floozy. Well, maybe just if he's in an expensive restaurant (she can grab a camcorder once location is known, to confirm).<< SP - I wasn't aware of the Verizon Chaperone service. Interesting. But it doesn't use GPS. It just uses the cell-tower signal triangulation method. Hmmm. I guess if the GPS chip in the phone got the location data from the satellite, and then reported that to the network, it could be used to more closely pinpoint your location. I hadn't thought of that at first. OK, back to paranoia mode. - Allen
