Technology is constantly improving. There's no reason it has to stay at 30 feet forever. The claim is now 150 feet. (http://www.newsgab.com/tech-news/244...ded-range.html)

It would have many uses. Besides letting you know that your bag is near the luggage carousel. it will tell you if someone is walking off with your bag or your laptop.

If you're traveling with children, it will alert you if the kid wanders off. And help locate the child if that happens.

Keys, iPad, etc. There are many ways this helps travel, never mind daily life.
