Have you ever wondered where your partner goes during the day?  They claim to be at the office, but when they get home they smell strongly of dung and are chewing on a piece of straw.  You suspect they might be a closet farmer, tending to the fields and just pretending to be a chartered accountant, but without proof you can’t trick them into appearing on a daytime television show and confront them.  Well now, you paranoid menace, you can track them using the awesome power of satellites.

Looking, to all rights and intents, like a simple USB memory key, the GPS Track Stick is in fact a tiny data logger which stores its location over time, later to be uploaded to a computer via the USB 1.1 plug.  The included integration software can then display the data in standard HTML, EXCEL, Google Earth KML, and RTF file formats.  Date, Time, Latitude, Longitude, Altitude, Speed, If the unit stopped and for what time frame, Direction of travel (N, W, E, S), GPS Fix and Signal Strength are all recorded, and the device is accurate to 15 metres.

The best thing is, because they’re not actually in an office they’ll never plug the key in and thus discover your subtefuge!  Don’t delay, buy the $259 GPS Track Stick for your loved one this Christmas. 

(Of course, it’s illegal to track someone without their permission; instead you should use the Track Stick for entertaining hobby-style purposes)
