time. I think the idea is GREAT…Knowing I have phones somewhere, 2 in
the <st1:country-region w:st="on">US</st1:country-region>, 1 in <st1:country-region
w:st="on">Germany</st1:country-region> and I think one in the <st1:country-region

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:

owner can choose to register their MAC, modem serial number or other unique component
ID that will not change unless hardware is reconfigured. Then if the device is
lost or stolen, the registered owner can request a track with the registered units
ID. Even if the device is re-flashed at some time in the device’s life,
I am sure the new user(s) or lucky finder will attempt to use it as intended and
connect via WiFi and broadcast. It will at least get the ball rolling.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

interested users, the tracker can start to gather may be SIM info, New SIM

it all starts with the unique component ID if there is one </span></font><font

24 coordinates a day. This could help me find it back or help the police<br>
find it back. Of course, if the Moko is turned off, it won't be possible to<br>
track it. But as soon as it is turned on again (even if flashed with<br>

with its SIM-change and flash-change prone ID.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
