Curious if anyone is going to jump in on AirTags or has already ordered. Orders started today: https://www.macrumors.com/2021/04/23/airtags-orders-now-available/
If I was traveling a lot like pre-Covid, I'd probably jump in immediately and grab the 4 for $99 package. I like the replaceable battery and that you only have to replace about once a year. I do wonder about losing items in places with no cell service and how well they'll work. I'd probably think about two keychains for me and my wife and two in our suitcases. Kids' backpacks are a possibility too I guess, though they've never lost them.
I was also thinking about whether these would survive the temperatures of sitting in the car in New England year round. I'm not really worried about theft, but using the app to remember exactly where I parked after a week at the airport or in other massively large parking situations seems useful.
