FIRST LOOK! We've had a TracMe demo kit and some production TracMe beacons to test and it's time to render a preliminary verdict. There are two primary questions that need answering. First; does it work, or more precisely, does it perform as represented by the manufacturer and will it meet consumers' expectations? Second; does it have value as a means to save lives? Read what we found out about using the Trac-Me and what the answers are to those questions.

Also, in related news, in my Equipped.org Blog I note that TracMe is opposing the FCC's request that they stop calling it a Personal Locator Beacon: http://www.equipped.org/blog/?p=71
