For tracking, try Mobile Defense. Follow the instructions on their website for installing it as a system app so it can not be removed without a little work and know-how.

Currently not accepting new users. They will notify when they do again. Any ideas how long until then? Any alternative program for now?

Use Sprite Terminator. It's designed as a kill pill for lost phones, but it has a GPS utility that allows you to "ping" the phone (the phone user has no idea this is happening...it's invisible) and get the GPS coordinates back (which then displays on google maps). I used it with my WM phone for a while, and just installed the android version on my Epic. Works very well.

The Terminator app will let you ping the phone to get the last 5 numbers called. Not sure what you can use to see SMS activity though.

...also, the beta version is free if download it from the company's web site. Otherwise, I think it's $5 at the marketplace:

I was able to adapt all my programs from WinMo to Android or find a comparable or better app.

The GPS tracker is one I have not found, I used to use WinMo Smart Phone Tracker
Smartphone Tracker

It was simple, just send out the the command text from any other cell phone and it would reply back to that cell phone with the GPS coordinates. All done silently without the phone being tracked knowing it got a text.

Seems like Prey, Lookout Mobile, etc for android all require you to setup an online account and can only view the coordinates through another computer. I just want a simple text back.
