Watching too much CSI, methinks.
Its technically possible, and if they were hunting down a terrorist with a nuclear device I am sure they would do that. It takes a lot of resources which cost a lot of $

But in this case?

399672 2005-10-31 19:46:00 I remember the police doing it in the Mark Lundy case (the guy that murdered his wife and kids). They were able to prove that he wasn't where he said he was by using his cellfone to identify the location of his calls, or something to that effect.

But as you say, all depends on $$$$ and a laptop aint worth doing that I spose.
