Is there any way to track my n900? I lost it I don't know how I had it in the car now its not there. Must have fallen out when I got out. Its on and it rings, any possibilities?

I guess you do not have smscon installed?
Does it have bluetooth and wlan on? Then you could scan first wlan-devices (if you would know the wlan mac address), check signal levels, get closer, and when you get close enough (15 m), scan bluetooth devices (if you would know the BT mac address).
But without smscon and if you cannot hear it ringing, rather difficult task to track it. Your operator knows in what cell it is in as long it has power on, but I guess they will not give you that information.
