The report by Channel 9 News was about a service called Radar that tracks cell phone usage. Texts and pics are captured, as well as the call log, but phone calls are not recorded. I’m not sure this is really worth the $10 a month since all the calls are listed on each phone bill. I also don’t think my kids are likely to be approached (called) by some random abductor. Still, when my 17 year old starts keeping conversations, friendships, and text messages to herself, I can see the attraction to the possibility of reviewing her texts with her. Walt Mossberg reviewed the service last summer. Here is a link to the Radar site:http://www.MyMobileWatchdog.com.
