They work very well. I am in the process of getting two of these wherifones for my two older kids. It's basically a cell phone with a global GPS device embedded inside and you can get a real time location on your child accurate to withing a few feet quite literally. I keep the wristwatch device on my kids when they go on fieldtrips and that sort of thing, I can simply log onto the website and get a REAL time exact location on my child, WITH a map overlay. It is incredible.

Walking around as everyone have to hear those annoying bleeping sounds those things make and they scream into them when they talk. They should be banned." You bet! And not only that... those in the queue areas receiving or making calls and yapping up a storm causing distractions or disturbances need to grow some manners.

We use cell phones for emergencies and preplanned meeting times and places when we split up. Usually, we are all together since it is a family trip!
