...Greg and his dad at a restaurant in La Jolla, Calif., where Tom runs a for-profit treatment center.

He then asked the waiter if it would be O.K. if Greg drank with his approval. The waiter said...
...while you're at it, you may as well throw in MobileMe, Apple's retooled .Mac "cloud" server, which automatically and wirelessly synchs your e-mail, calendar, contacts and photos among your iPhone and assorted computers.

Unlike other navigation devices, which rely on FM frequencies to receive updates, but can't communicate their own location, the Dash Express has both Wi-Fi and a cellular modem built in. Yet even the Dash Express can't be remotely located using this technology. "We are not technically capable of tracking exactly where a device is," says Mark...
