but if someone steals it, wouldn't you be able to track them down? What are prices and service costs of these?

The 1st gen is $100 or so if you can find them. I got mine for $100 with a $50 rebate.
The latest model that's out is $170. Service varies by term and options, but for a one year term, with the ability to track progress online like Trip has, it about $150. Spot Tracker

If anyone steals it, it's worthless. They come with individual authorization numbers for service. If you report it stolen, SPOT will turn it off and then if some idiot tries to activate it, boom busted.

It worked well on this end. Bounced the satellite and updated the website every 8-12 minutes on average.
I'd recommend not turning it on at your house though next time. LOL

I didn't, I turned it on at the high school. It is close to my house, but not my house.
