My initial reaction was "nonsense!". Then I read the post by JMOR and I have to retract a bit. It sounds like a small, privately-held company looking to create some buzz in preparation for its IPO.

Any device detecting a text would have to be already homed in on the car at the instant the texter hit "send".
