"According to the Metropolitan Police figures, 10,000 mobile phones are stolen every month. But a new service from mobile device management company Synchronica (http://forums.thoughtsmedia.com/www.synchronica.com) aims to help victims of theft strike back. Synchronica's mobile phone management software Mobile Manager can remotely lock and wipe data from mobile phones as soon as their owners report the loss. If the phone has been stolen, companies can also turn on the Synchronica Scream Feature, causing an annoying and embarrassing high pitched wail to be emitted from the stolen device."
An interesting idea akin to the device security features introduced into Windows Mobile 5 (i.e. the S in the MSFP). While I think a thief would certainly find a screaming phone annoying, no mention is made about any kind of locking battery door that would prevent a quick battery removal. Or maybe a secret battery to keep the scream alive? :twisted:
