The problem is of course that you can't sent sms/emails if there is no sim.<br>And even IF there is a sim, you cant always sent emails since you need to have a data plan.<br>SMS of course is an option.<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

I have been thinking for a system like this sinds my last phone was stolen :(<br><br>What I would like is:<br>simcard is changed -> phone sents email/sms to a server.<br>Gives me the new phone number, a code to call the phone silent.
<br>Possibility to call phone and open a remote terminal.<br>With acces to GPS data, and all personal data, my own and from the new owner.<br><br>Fuck with him for a while (sent delayed (with cron) a few sms messages to his friends) change his agenda, etc etc
<br><br>Look him up at the most embarrassing place (work, school) and get my phone back.<br><span class="sg"><br><br>Buddy</span><div><span class="e" id="q_1137e2d28c7b4afd_2"><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 6/30/07,

Hi sean and other OpenMoko-ers<br><br>Just read an article on Slashdot (?) about the fact that lots of <br>of our precious gadgets get stolen (or lost).<br><br>Not being a hardware guy, I was wondering if one could build/integrate/stick
<br>to them some kind of 'anti-proximity' detector.<br><br>This is a device that consists of a a central - costly ? - pockettable <br>detector (that probes for a set of devices within a know list every now and<br>
then) and which you put in your pocket, or wallet or on your keychain.<br><br>Around that device a 'cloud' of periferals exists (Neo, wallet, Phone, <br>Laptop, ...) each tagged with a cheap ID which gets probed by the central.
<br><br>If any of the periferals fall out of range, the central beeps warning me - the<br>owner of these nice periferals - that I am loosing one. <br><br>I do not know if this idea is at all feasible (battery consumption, size, ...)
<br>or perhaps it even exists, but I wanted to float this idea.<br><br>Suggestions comments welcome<br><br>W<br><br>_______________________________________________ <br>OpenMoko community mailing list<br><a href="mailto:community@lists.openmoko.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
