[RC] Zoom Zoom/lost horses - Shirley WoolaverAs I too have been able to get the story of Zoom Zoom out of my mind, I have begun the search for my next "gadget".
I came across a neat little "watch type" GPS locator that is made for children. The service is not available in Canada and maybe everyone in the U.S. already knows about it, but I thought it may be worth a mention.
While the child is wearing the watch you can go to a website and type in the identification # of that watch and it pinpoints within a few feet where the child is. If a person could attach the watch to their horse/tack they could then find their horse...?? You could get the GPS readings from the website and then use another GPS to find your horse hiding...
Another useful option is that it has a button that can be pressed to alert 911 of trouble and of your location. Of course,now you would have to decide if your going to attach the watch to yourself or your horse! It is a little pricey though,$200 for the watch and then a monthly fee for the "service". BUT like I said, it is not available in canada... Maybe it would be an option for those of you in the U.S. though?
Just a thought...
