Find My iPhone Used to Chase Down Stolen iPhone
These icons are for my man Andrew ignore these, although if someone can make the 3.0 sms app icon to a tenuis icon but keep it the same that would be nice as im using that theme right now and the sms icons sucks.
Kevin Miller managed to use Find My iPhone, a laptop, and a mobile Internet connection to track down his stolen iPhone.
raced back into the bar, not even particularly concerned, but it was gone like baby. In less than five minutes, with very few people in the small place, my beloved JesusPhone had managed to vanish into a black hole. Our waitress was sympathetic, and I left a number, but I was immediately glum about my prospects of seeing it again.
So I felt like about zero cents, but then we giddily realized that I had *just* activated the brand-new Find My iPhone service. Even better, Mark had a Sprint (yes, Sprint) USB dongle giving him Internet access over 3G on his MacBook Pro. Excited to try it out, we hopped onto me.com and clicked the Find My iPhone link.

Wow! hahaah, great read! I wish you didn't have to subscribe to MobileMe to utilize this feature. Luckily, in the 2 years I have had the phone. I haven't lost it.
I once forgot it in a bathroom stall at my workplace, but I realized after 3 minutes that it was missing, and I rushed back, and it was still there!

that guy was pretty lucky. i believe this theft doesn't know about find my iphone and not too intelligent. if he pops out the sims and turn off wifi/data, then it's game over.
