That was my question, too. What about tracking just the SIM card? Can they do that wo/ the battery activated?

How do they track cell phones with the battery removed?/i>Latest technology probably puts self-contained trackers in all cell phone batteries.....Wouldn't put it past them - might explain why the batteries cost so damn much.

People have told me the GPS in your phone can have its own power source, and requires very little power itself...

How do they track cell phones with the battery removed?My understanding (I DO NOT own a cell phone) is that removing the battery won't do it. The SIM (subscriber identity module) card, where all your info is stored, is powered by an internal, non-removable battery.
You must remove both the battery AND the SIM card to be untrackable.
Those with more/other knowledge please respond.

How do they track cell phones with the battery removed? Who owns a phone that has a removable battery?
