Zoombak is launching another package for its convenient little Zoombak GPS locator device, in addition to the existing Car and Pet versions. Zoombak Universal comes with a new universal carrying case designed to let you mount the device to just about anything else you’d care to track — like a bike or a wayward child, for instance. It looks like it’ll be retailing for the same $199 and require the same $9.99 monthly fee as its predecessors, but you will be able to pick this version up at major electronics retailers in May.

Here’s an innovative concept of integrating WiFi location technology into a stylish suitcase, making WiFi hotspot searching easier.

Instead of the usual “take the laptop out of the bag and turn it on and hope there would be a signal” routine, all the user has to do is to look at the LCD display on the bag to get quick information on WiFi signal. The developer Soyntec calls it the “Wiffinder”, which target business executives and travelers everywhere.The WiFi locator on the laptop bag is easy to use. Just a single touch of a button and the user would be able to figure out the available WiFi signal surrounding them. It also has a signal bar indicating the signal strength that would provide a more stable network connectivity. The Wiffinder is also available in a variety of luggages such as a trolley bag, executive case bag, university backpack among others.

There is only one glitch though: The user cannot tell if the signal is free-on-air or encrypted. Overall, despite its usefulness, the Soyntech Wiffinder would probably become overshadowed by more advanced locators in the not-so-near future.
