Everyone and their grandma today has an iPod or some other kind of music playing device, except for me.每个人都和自己的奶奶今天iPod或一些其他类型的音乐播放器,除了我。 So you can imagine if I were a thief, I would have a lot of different opportunities to steal your iPod, iPhone, iTouch, cell phone, media player, BlackBerry, or other device pretty easily.所以你可以想象,如果我是一个小偷,我想有很多不同的机会,窃取您的iPod , iPhone的, itouch ,手机,媒体播放器,黑莓,或其他装置相当容易。 And I’m sure that has happened to a LOT of people already.我敢肯定,这已经发生了不少的人了。 Most of the time people have no idea who stole it and it’s basically lost forever.大部分的时间,人们不知道谁偷走了它,而它的基本永远失去了。

However, if you take some time out right after you purchase your device, you can actually track, locate and recover a stolen device, including devices like USB sticks, external hard drives, PSP’s, cell phones, digital cameras and lots more.不过,如果你需要一些时间找出正确后,您购买自己的设备,你真正可以追踪,找到并追回被盗装置,其中包括设备,如USB接口的记忆棒,外接式硬碟, PSP的,手机,数码相机及其它更多地方。 I personally think these services are essential since most new gadgets are fairly expensive, yet very small, making them easy targets for pick pockets, etc.我个人认为,这些服务是必不可少的,因为大多数新产品都是相当昂贵,但非常小,使他们容易的目标,为落袋等。

You can check out two cool web sites that allow you to install software onto your devices and then will track them whenever they are plugged into a computer or connected to the Internet.您就可以检查出两个酷的网站,让您安装软件到你的设备,然后将它们进行跟踪时,他们是连接到电脑或互联网的连接。

小工具追踪

GadgetTrak gadgettrak is by far my favorite and has been around for a long time.是目前为止我最喜爱的,并一直围绕在相当长的时间。 You can even use GadgetTrak on Apple computers to find and recover stolen computers.你甚至可以使用gadgettrak对苹果电脑找到并追回失窃的电脑。 PhoneBak is the service is provides to track PDAs and cell phones by allowing you to configure a set number of authorized SIM cards for your device. phonebak是服务是提供给轨道PDA和手机,让你来配置定数的核定SIM卡,为您的设备。 If an unauthorized SIM card is put into your phone, an SMS alert will be sent to you.如果未经授权的SIM卡放进你的电话,短信警报,将传送给您。

The cool thing about GadgetTrak is that you can even see where the device has been taken over time in a Google Map:凉爽的一件事gadgettrak是,你甚至可以看到该设备已被接管的时候,在Google地图:

Once you report it as stolen, you’ll also see other details about the location of the device including IP address, computer name, user name on the computer, location (country/state/city), ISP, and other information.一旦你的报告,它作为被盗,你还会看到其他的资料,有关地点的设备,包括IP地址,计算机名称,用户名称,计算机,地点(国家/州/市) ,互联网服务供应商和其他信息。

GadgetTrak is not free, but it’s definitely worth it for those expensive little digital cameras, HD camcorders, and PDAs. gadgettrak不是免费的,但是它的绝对价值,它为这些昂贵的小数码相机,高清摄像机和PDA 。 Think of it as an insurance policy because most warranties do not cover stolen devices, only device problems or accidental damage.把它作为一项保险政策,因为大部份的保证并不包括被盗装置中,只有设备问题或其他意外损失。 For one device, it’s around $13 to protect it.为一台设备,它的大约13元,以保护它。

For Macs, GadgetTrak has a feature called Verey, it will record video via a capture device called iSight.宜, gadgettrak有一个特色verey ,它将记录影片通过一个捕捉设备名为iSight的。 Neat!干净! Anyone steals your Mac, you can freaking record them!有人偷了你的Mac ,你可以在忧心,记录他们! Nice.尼斯。

Another service that does pretty much the same thing as GadgetTrak is called另一项服务,但这几乎同样的事情,因为gadgettrak称为 iHound ihound . The nice thing about iHound, however, is that it’s currently free of charge!尼斯的一件事ihound ,但问题在于,它的目前免费的! Eventually they are planning on charging, but somewhere around $1 per device, which is a lot cheaper than GadgetTrak.最终他们正在策划对收费,但某个约为百分之一装置,这是一个很大便宜gadgettrak 。 On the bad side, though, iHound does not support Macs or cell phones, so if you want to protect those devices, you’ll have to use GadgetTrak.从负面来说,虽然, ihound不支持Mac电脑或手机上,因此,如果你想保护这些设备,你将有机会使用gadgettrak 。

ihound

They mostly support Flash Drives, MP3 Players like the iPod, and a few digital cameras.他们大都支持闪存盘, MP3播放器如苹果,并于数数码相机。 Once you install the software onto your USB device, your device can be located all the time.一旦你安装软件到你的USB设备时,您的装置,可设在所有时间。 You can actually track the location down to the zip code!你真正可以跟踪位置,下至邮编!

追查被盗小玩意

So if you’re looking for a way to track your expensive devices and protect them from thieves, go ahead and give iHound a shot since it’s free.因此,如果你正在寻找一种方法来跟踪你的昂贵设备,并保护他们免遭小偷,你尽管让ihound打了,因为它是免费的!
