THIS SUCKS BIG TIME!!!!!! I am at a club last night and about 2 seconds after i leave i realize that my phone is not with me. i start calling it and retracing my steps in the club frantically but no luck. all of my info is in that thing and i didnt have any kind of back up or anti theft software or anything for it. any ideas on what i can do to protect contacts and pw's and other precious info?
on another note. everything happens for a reason. maybe its time to get a new phone. after all the complaints about pr 1.2 idk' perhaps i should just hold out until nokia release the meego device or what ever.
trying to look on the bright side here. .... not having any luck
hope the club was worth it....if u catch my drift

Eeeeeeek sorry to hear. Check with the club tonight or the local police. A longshot but there are some people out there that appreciate & understand losing a phone. They might have handed it in as opposed to nosing through all your stuff or wiping it clean and keeping it for themselves. Fingers crossed for you but remember its only a phone...worse things can happen eh.
Are you insured for the handset ??

I am not even so concerned about loosing the phone it self or having to buy another one. thats not the prob. its only a phone its materialistic ya know? u can get another phone.
what sucks is having o redo pass words and bank accounts and try and remember all the important stuff that was in there. all of my friends and families birthdays, home address, work numbers etc? little nieces and cousins birthday videos. smh. that along with the sense of violation it caused is what sucks so much

But um... after owning a n900 how can you go to something like a Droid? How can you go to anything BUT another n900? after you have experience "transmission" "fm transmitter" which i use all the time "ecoach" the ease of use in snycing with im accounts, ALL THEM at ONCE, the brilliant screan. the openess and customization, THE BIGGEST THING OF ALL.. THE MAEMO COMMUNITY? how the heck can i go to a iphone i mean really.
besides i brought a ipod , wich was my first apple product. after that experienced i vowed never again to do anything apple. especially after they sold the 3gs about four late. that should hav ebeen the first iphone.
But to stay on topic. i just cant see going to anything inferior or other than the n900

Hello andraeseus, maybe you should try locking it with the IMEI code. I don't know how it works in your country, but in Italy we can call our mobile operator to ask for locking our stolen mobile by giving them the IMEI code. And if you ask the police they could even locate your mobile using the IMEI, so don't give up an try to find it!
