DISQUS

You know, I really take little pleasure in saying I told you so, but, er, I told you so.

(Thanks ZoomBak - normally it takes ages for my skepticism to be proved correct. Next - mobile phones shaped like teddy bears)

I know, but I really really liked the zoombak :(

I guess I'll have to take a look at homebrew again for my geotracking needs... zoombak was going to give me some nice telemetry for my automatic call routing setup!

Easy: buy cheap GPS-enabled Symbian phone, or just cheap S60 phone with a Bluetooth GPS unit. Actually, sod it. Just a cheap S60 phone. 6120 Classic will do.

Load Zonetag onto it. Set it to auto-start / publish location.

Set Zonetag to publish location to Fire Eagle.

Use just about anything to get the phone's location from Fire Eagle.

Done! On an old, cheap phone, with data for £5/month.
