I know that GPS units are great to use when traveling and I use mine frequently, but is there a way to track individual GPS units bought at any retail outlet?
Im skeptical but not sure. Can "Big Brother" or some other unscrupulous party watch where we go? Im sure PDA's with cellphone capability can be tracked but Im curious about dedicated GPS units. Thanks!

A standard GPS unit is a receiver only and do not transmit their position.

No. The normal GPS unit is just a receiver. It receives the satellite signals to determine its position but has no way whatsoever to send this position to another device.
