Apple files patent for locationg lost items through bluetooth

[Johno]

Just saw this on TG Daily. Seems pretty cool:


Apple has filed a patent which could help users to track down easily lost objects such as a Bluetooth headset. The document with the title "Location discovery using Bluetooth" surfaced yesterday suggests that an iPhone could be used to ping a Bluetooth-paired device that would react with a high pitched sound or light.http://www.tgdaily.com/content/view/37722/149/

Yeah.. but doesn't it have to be within bluetooth range?

Gah, I always used to think about something like this when i lost things when I was younger and never thought to start developing it XD

Sounds like a great idea.
