如何跟蹤，找出并且恢復被竊取的小配件或設備(膝上計算機、照相機等等)

張貼在2007年12月1日在4:18 pm

大家和他們的祖母今天有音樂演奏設備的一iPod或，除了我。如此您能想像我是否是竊賊，我會有很多不同的機會相當容易地竊取您的iPod、iPhone、iTouch、手機、傳媒播放裝置、黑莓，或者其他設備。并且我是肯定的已經發生在很多人民身上。人們大多時間不知道誰竊取了它，并且它永遠基本上丟失。

然而，如果您需要某個時候，在您購買您的設備之後，您能跟蹤，多實際上找出和恢復一個被竊取的設備，包括設備像USB棍子，外在硬盤、PSP、手機、數字照相機和全部。我親自認為這些服務是根本，因為多數新的小配件是相當昂貴的，非常小的，做他們容易的目標為採擷口袋等等。

您能檢查允許您安裝軟件您的設備的二個涼快的網站然後跟蹤他們，每當他們被塞住入計算機或被聯繫到互聯網。

GadgetTrak 顯然是我的喜愛和長期。您在蘋果電腦能甚而使用GadgetTrak發現和恢復被竊取的計算機。 PhoneBak是服務是提供給軌道PDAs和手機通過允許您配置授權SIM卡片的集合數字為您的設備。如果一張未批准的SIM卡片被放入您的電話， SMS戒備將被送到您。

涼快的事關於GadgetTrak是您能甚而看哪裡設備在Google地圖被接收了時間：

一旦您報告它如被竊取，您在計算機也將看關於設備的地點的其他細節包括IP地址、電腦名稱、用戶名，地點(國家或州或者城市)， ISP和其他信息。

GadgetTrak不是自由的，但是它確定地值得為那些昂貴的矮小的數字照相機、HD攝像機和PDAs。因為多數保單不包括被竊取的設備、設備問題或者仅偶然損傷，認為它作為保險單。為一個設備，它是保護它的大約$13。

為橡皮防水布， GadgetTrak有稱Verey的一個特點，它通過稱iSight的捕獲設備將記錄錄影。整潔! 任何人竊取您的Mac，您能freaking紀錄他們! 好。

幾乎做事和一樣GadgetTrak叫的另一項服務 iHound. 好的事關於iHound，然而，是它免費當前是! 他們在充電，但某處大約$1最終計劃每個設備，比GadgetTrak很多便宜。 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.

They mostly support Flash Drives, MP3 Players like the iPod, and a few digital cameras. Once you install the software onto your USB device, your device can be located all the time. You can actually track the location down to the zip code!

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. GadgetTrak seems to support way more devices and is for those really serious about protecting their gadgets! Enjoy!

Looks like Gadgettrak is more powerful with a wider coverage on devices.

By the way, iHound don’t work on Vista.

I couldn’t contact you so I thought I’d comment on this brilliant article.
I subscribe to Brown Thoughts, and he recently put a post about your post on his website entitled, How to track, locate, and recover stolen gadgets or devices. Now I have a new SE W610i and I wanted to protect it so I found a free service that did it.
I am interested in other services so I clicked your link. I found your article very interesting and I might go and buy the service from Gadget Trak. Since you have such a good website, I was wondering if you’d like to do a link exchange with my website. Reply whether or not you’d like to.

The iHound site is not working, it just hangs when I click on the link. Guess you get what you pay for.

I like the idea of at least putting in thieves minds that these devices can communicate home, maybe it will make them think twice when stealing gadgets.
