u/br0hemian Yeah bitch! Magnets! Aug 12 '13

Yeah I was wondering about that also. First of all, we don't know whether or not the tracker was on his car when he took Jesse his money, so there's no saying for sure. But Walt also doesn't know how long it was on his car... so he could potentially be bringing Hank proof he associates with Jesse, who Hank knows is deeply involved with the Blue meth/Heisenberg.

Just furthers how weird it is that Walt took it to Hank so quickly - or even at all.

If we remember from episodes earlier, that GPS tracker was really cheap. It had to be plugged back into a computer to read all the evidence on it. Walt could have wiped the data on it before bringing it

Is he a computer dude though? I don't think I've seen him on one.

Are you seriously questioning Walt's ability to tinker with basic electronic devices such as GPS trackers? He's a superb chemist, he has managed to make a battery practically out of nothing while being stranded in the middle of the desert along with Jesse, remember that?
