It&#x27;s based in India yet charging for shipping outside USA? From the applications it sounds like a US based company that&#x27;s offloaded some development in B&#x27;lore. Is that the case?<p>Some functionality overlaps with similar projects like : <a href="http://www.sticknfind.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.sticknfind.com</a> , <a href="http://www.wallettrackr.com/" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wallettrackr.com&#x2F;</a>

Since there&#x27;s no actual link in the article as far as I can find, for those who have not yet seen the funding page (such as myself):<p><a href="http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/gecko-make-your-smart-phone-smarter" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.indiegogo.com&#x2F;projects&#x2F;gecko-make-your-smart-phon...</a>

$50,000 sounds incredibly low to get this to market. Surely setting up manufacturing and shipping and sourcing the components is going to eat up more than that? They&#x27;ve already promised nearly all their backers at least one of these things, so it&#x27;s not like they will get in more revenue from sales until after all of those are made and shipped.
