Prey lets you keep track of your phone or laptop at all times, and will help you find it if it ever gets lost or stolen. It's lightweight, open source software, and free for anyone to use. And it just works.

This looks pretty sweet. I need to try this too.

:lol: i,m actually a little bit more update than that m8, Sony Ericsson K880i, yea i know a dinosaur but to be perfectly honest i,ve never really been a fan of mobile phones anyway, i like something i can fit my fingers on if u know what i mean

thought about a smart phone not so long ago after seeing my m8's iphone 4 but to be honest i really grudge paying £300 + for something i would really only use on my home wifi and also make the odd phone call... there really is no point in me updating it @ this point in time

I saw my friend using the Galaxy S II and was pretty impressed? Big bright screen, light, slim ... it does kinda feel plasticky and doesn't have the heft of an iPhone ...

I agree about the plasticky feel but as soon as I bought it I put a cover on it...so i don't really get that...but IMO apple sucks ass...The fact that you can play around with an android phone indefinitely and that you can do fuck all with the Iphone means that I will never pay more to have an inferior piece of hardware (because it is inferior) and software (again locked into steve jobs power trip)

Best thing about the phone is the screen IMO...absolutely glorious...and its fast...definitely more so than all the competition...not sure about the new HTC...haven't really had a chance to [URL="http://www.mercuryserver.com/forums/djdb.php?id=1241"]examine[/URL] it closely.
