Ya right, for $599 on eBay. My dog could be lost in the Sinai and I still wouldn't spend $599 to find it -- and that's from a dog lover. OTOH a cell phone is 1/10th or less that price BUT... accessing the GPS data from a cell phone is no simple matter. Generally speaking it's only for 911 calls and requires a bit of coordination between the GPS in the cell phone (only accurate to 100 yards or so) and the cellular network, etc. etc.
I guess you could call the dog and listen really really close for the ring. Or you could train him/her/it to bark incessantly when their phone rings. The possibilities are endless.
