    blueproximity works nicely

    Does exactly what it says. Works beautifully. Also prevents my name from landing on a security audit report for having my machine unlocked and unattended.

    It may be better with password protection for configuration. Still it's a very good tool! Good job!

    Still a bit buggy - not locking and unlocking as expected, but this is a fantastic idea!!

    Gread product, works like charm. One idea for extention: Be able to define more than 1 BT device. With that: define the number of BT devices that need to be in range (1 to 'all') to lock/unlock. Other (side) idea: be able to define a BT device that reverses the action: lock the system if that (or 'not listed') BT devices are in range.
