I'am thinking about getting the starter kit, I would gave the phone to my teenage daughter. Would i be able to check her location, how would i do that, would that be through the internet. Would it gave me a exact address. I'am new at this and not sure how this works. Any advice would be helpful. Is startup easy.

seriously, it does all you want it to.
note that it will not run completely hidden to her.
you can observe the phone location over the internet.

The important thing is that your daughter needs to know that the tracking is running, and not to shut it off.

I have notice other user on this forum say that the maps you have are hard to read. How does the map look, does it gave you a exact address or just the general area?

This is good so then it just gives you a street name but not a address is it possiable to download something to give you a exact address. I'am want ot buy three different starter kits. One for personal use and two becuse we run a landscaping bussiness and want to know if our employess are going where they are suppoused to go.

The Boost Moblie coverage map does not have my house, does that effect the GPS??? Can you only use Nextel?

If your area is not covered by Boost Mobile, you won't be able to track the phone. Yes, Nextel only.

Hi I'm in the father of driving teenager mode. Does anyone know if AT&T Blackjack II phone has this capability? AT&T says they do not provide GPS tracking. I'm wondering if AT will work- the phone is listed as though it does.

Also, I noticed it mentioned in the blog that the service can not go undetected by the phone carrier. Why is that?

Thanks,

a dad
