Seriously, the phone argument gets really old. Everytime
somebody tells me "if you are so paranoid turn off your
phone" I happen to have the phone turned off at home.

Blackberry (aka Research In Motion) had a feature/service that
would ring your phone should misplace it. The interesting thing
about that is that the phone would ring if it is turned OFF.

The feature/service only worked at special website designed for
that puprose. Since I use my BB as a mobile hotspot, and if the
phone is OFF and it is misplaced, I'm screwed. But if there is
an alternate means to access that website, then it can be
helpful.

Which makes we wonder.. did the RIM service blanket the world
with this wake-up-ring signal? Incredible.
