Sorry for the vague title, but I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. I know someone who is the world's worst scatterbrain, so I figured a good idea for a present would be a sort of gadget that helps you find lost items, something along the lines of what you get with cordless phones (ie, press a button on the base station and the handset starts beeping); or, if it's affordable, some sort of... tracking... thingy... if such a thing exists.
Basically, imagine you're standing in a room of clutter with your keys buried somewhere under piles of junk, and you think "this is the perfect time for X!" and you pull X out of your pocket and it points you to your keys or makes them ring or something - I want X.
Does such a thing exist?

Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape-shifting Master of Darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil,
but a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me. Before the final blow
was struck, I tore open a portal in time and flung him into the future, where my evil is law! Now, the fool
seeks to return to the past, and undo the future that is Aku...

wait... what if you buy like 20 of these things, and you lose a set of keys for example. If you press the button, do all 20 start screeching?
