PDAs and Pocket PCs are getting smaller, while at the same time increasing in processing power, storage and cost . The data that resides on these devices can sometimes be worth more to the owner than the devices themselves. PhoneBak PDA is triggered when the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) in your phone is replaced with an unauthorized one. When this occurs PhoneBak will silently send SMS messages to a pre-defined numbers you have entered (spouse, IT department etc).&quot;</em></p><p><img border="0" alt="" src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com//spt/auto/1195151643.usr11642.png" /></p><p>Now I don't know how well this works but can you imagine the look on the crook's face when the officer informs him of what he already knows - the device is stolen. The folks over at GadgetTrak have just the software to help you get your rightfully owned device back. You can either contact the person who has your phone or you can contact your local law enforcement. $29.95 will get you the software and peace of mind. </p>

this would be a lot more useful if it supported the ability to send GPS coordinates in the SMS, as most devices do have integrated GPS. then its a lot more usable.
