As I sat down for my flight from Detroit to Green Bay last Friday night, I knew that instant that I'd left my cell phone on the seat next to me at the gate. It was very late (1045pm) so I figured that no one would have taken the phone, but to my surprise that phone as NOT on the seat as anticipated... So, I did a little more due diligence and found that the phone had slipped below the seats and nearly blended into the carpet below. Whew! Saved the phone (that would have been the 3rd phone (2 blackberries and one treo) that I'd lost in 2 years...not cool)

However, if I'd had this little tool (and for those of you w/out land lines, this would be cool as well), I'd have been able to dial in perpetuity until I heard the phone ringing.

Of course, if you're web enabled, you could also Skype out to your mobile # and find it that way as well...
