Technology Already Exists - GadgetTrak

The technology to recover stolen gadgets already exists - GadgetTrak (http://www.gadgettrak.com). Subscribers register their device and download a small bit of software onto their iPod or other gadget. When the USB partition is accessed it triggers the agent to talk with a central server. If the device has been reported stolen it sends data back to the server including username, computername,internal network addres, IP address along with geographic location.
