Stealing a Phone? Better Keep it Off.

Written by Chad on September 2nd, 2009

Read a small AP story in today’s paper about a thief that got caught because the phone he stole had a GPS built into it and the owner used that to locate said thief and he was arrested.

With the number of phones with GPS built in increasing.. I wonder if this will shortly be one area that will see thefts drop because the criminal could be more easily located.

I tried to find the AP story online to link to it.. but no luck yet.
