The damn thing pinpointed the ADDRESS in which the phone had been taken to. It had been taken 50 miles away. We then went on Zillow.com and got a street view of the house and property values of the area. Redneck central. We could even see a pickup truck in the driveway. Instead of being dumb and calling the police and dealing with legal bullshit, we texted the phone saying that if the phone isn't returned to Chili's by the evening that the police would be sent to their house off Charles S Floyd Road in Loganville.

Apparently that freaked them out because we watched them on the locator take it back to Chili's. We had the phone by that evening. ]]>Jun 23rd 2009 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/
You took your girlfriend from Chicago to Chilis but the person who took the phone is a redneck?

My iPhone 1gen was stolen in march last year from my hands in subway by some drugmaniac - and first that he has done - is pulled my sim card and throw it away - I tried to call on the number right after that...
I don't think so that such service will work with foreign sim-card.
And even Find my iPhone service won't work without sim card inside the phone.]]>Jun 23rd 2009 6:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/Jun 23rd 2009 7:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/

The only saving grace is that if you kept a record of your IMEI number - you can give that to your service provider which would block the phone and render it unuseable. So you wouldn't get the phone back, but at least the thief would not get any benefit from stealing it.]]>Jun 23rd 2009 1:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://news.cnet.com/8301-17939_109-10270273-2.html]]>Jun 23rd 2009 1:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/Jun 23rd 2009 2:32PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/Jun 23rd 2009 5:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/

The thief does not need your stupid phone! - Many real thieves are very superstitious - they know that the curse can be made on stolen thing - so they selling all stuff immediately - this will get real cash and preventing anyones curse. And they never using stolen stuff personally for the same reasons.
Such iPhones immediately after restoring appear on eBay - for sale to foreign countries - where USA phone companies Imei blacklisting not working.
Usually such phone sells below normal price and goes sold in some minutes.]]>Jun 23rd 2009 7:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/Jun 23rd 2009 1:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/Jun 23rd 2009 12:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/Jun 23rd 2009 1:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/Jun 23rd 2009 2:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/23/find-my-iphone-reunites-true-nerd-with-lost-iphone/
