Penguinbait, if your tablet automatically connects to a sip server or to googletalk when on the net, you could find out where it is.


For example, my tablet automatically connects to sipphone.com (and google talk too). I got a gizmo account ages ago and simply use the built-in sip client now. When I log to:
https://my.sipphone.com/mysip/app?cl...ipRegistration

from anywhere on the net, sipphone will report back the i.p. of the tablet. This would be sufficient for the local police.

This agent would recommend you NOT file this type of claim....

I was very saddened and upset when I read about your loss earlier today Penguinbait.

Having just installed the awesome KDE deb installer for the first time last night, and used your SD cloning package, I donated $10 for now as your work deserves more than that. Thank you so much for what you have given us.

I've just donated, too... I agree with everything Dfinch said. KDE alone is worth more than this anyway.

The total since yesterday has topped 120$

I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am for your donations. Its a humbling experience and again my intent was not to come out here and beg for money or for a tablet.

I think the best thing to come from my tablet being taken is the software lojack idea of KP.

OK so here is the deal, Lets just say a person who wishes to remain anonymous has pledged to kindly donate to me an extra tablet that they have.

I have since retruned all the donations I recieved since yesterday.

Please only donate to me for my projects


Thanks again for the overwhelming support!
