I am currently:
Stolen Phone (Google Latitude Enabled)

Long story short, went to the library. 4 Hours later I realised I didn't have my phone. My sister rang it, they'd switched it off (it had a full battery when I left my house as I remember unplugging it from the charger). I searched everywhere, and reported it to Campus Security, and the library staff, and they haven't had it handed in.

And then, 1 hour ago my Latitude (GPS tracker) updated, saying it was at an address about 20 mins from where I live. Obviously, the only way this could happen is it being taken their (ie. stolen). I have the door number (obviously, there's a margin of error) and according to Google this is a phone shop.

So my question is, what are my options? I could block the phone/sim, but then I still have to get a new one (it only stops the other people using it), or is it possible to get the police to track it? Else, I could go to the phone shop and try and 'buy' my phone back. (There's a lot of data, pictures on the memory card).



It doesn't matter where you come from; it matters where you go.
No-one gets remembered for the things they didn't do.
We won't all be here this time next year,
so while you can take a picture of us.
We're definitely going to hell,
but we'll have all the best stories to tell.
