Navdy. Tile. Find your misplaced stuff with a $24.99 wireless finder kit | Marketplace Blog. Are you always losing your stuff? You know, your keys, your wallet, your purse, maybe even your phone? What you need is some kind of wireless transmitter for all those items, one that beeps when you push a button on a master remote. For a limited time, ShopTronics has the Magnasonic Wireless Key Finder for $24.99 shipped when you apply coupon code keycnet at checkout. It's normally $29.99 plus shipping. (Is it just me or does "Magnasonic" sound like a made-up company name, like "Panaphonics" or "Sorny"?) Though on the low-tech side when it comes to wireless (no Bluetooth or Wi-Fi used here), the Wireless Key Finder is kind of ideal for around the house.
It comes with four receivers, two intended for keychains, two "thin plates" that can be slipped into a wallet or adhered to the back of, say, a TV remote, a tablet, or, if it's constantly going missing and you can live with the shame of a wireless tether, your phone.

DecaWave launches indoor location chip that can accurately fix your position to within 10 centimers | VentureBeat | Gadgets | by Dean Takahashi.
New chip startup DecaWave is announcing an indoor location chip today that can provide accurate positioning to within 10 centimeters of your location. Above: DecaWave’s chip can find your position to within 10 centimeters. Image Credit: DecaWave If you’re trying to find your way through a giant Las Vegas casino or a maze-like airport, that could come in very handy. But if you’re the unlucky target of a smart bomb, then this is going to be a bad thing.
The company says applications for the ScenSor wireless chip family will be launched for the healthcare, factory automation, warehouse, and agriculture industries. “Until now, 10-centimeter location communications across close distances was not possible, and current systems with meter-level accuracy have limited reliability,” said Ciaran Connell, chief executive of DecaWave. Connell is a former executive at Motorola and Freescale. More than 1,800 firms and institutes have expressed interest in using the technology, Connell said.
