I recon i'd also stick one in my vl. not sure if its great considering the network isnt established yet but I'm seeing these things really take off. anyone elses thoughts?

well not much but its only available on apple products atm and apple seem to be supporting it. it's also styled to look like an apple product. so really its not really the point of the post to judge it based on the brand i thought that title would get more responses than "tile security"

The main question is how accurate is the GPS positioning etc? I'd hate to have to rely on this little tile for when my car gets stolen then it ends up not giving a good signal.

well it sounds like it'd be pretty good its just about whether or not theres big user uptake. also if you lived regional thered be issues but if the car was stolen and ended up in a backyard in broadmedows chances are it'd b found. maybe even in industrial areas with lots of orkers around. even driving down thre road nce its registered as stolen anyone within a certain distance will hav it noted and forwarded to you.

I dont think this is a GPS tracker. If it was in your car and the car was no longer in the last location you left it (ie Stolen) it wouldnt go finding current location of tile.

yeh its not a tracker and you have to be close to the car to find it, your better off buying an actually gps tracker
