Amazon.com lets people track packages via SMS

This one slipped under the radar, but Amazon.com is now letting some customers track their packages via text message TechFlash reports.

The ecommerce giant will send an SMS text to a person's mobile phone when their package is sent and also when it's delivered. Amazon says the feature is in beta testing and only available to a "small set" of customers right now.

Here's more from Amazon's FAQ sheet. Amazon doesn't charge for the text alerts, though the customer's mobile company charges whatever text-messaging rates apply.
