By the way, what do you techies think of this:

I'm not technical, so I dunno how effective these options would be.
I've thought about getting Undercover for my Macbook when I was traveling, since it has a lot of personal data on it. But I just don't take it with me that often any more. Not sure if I'd use it for an iPad though.

And yeah, I like FindMyiPhone for more the accidental/convenience finding features. But I also don't underestimate the stupidity of most thieves-I have a feeling a lot of them wouldn't know a SIM card if it hit them in the face-plus, who carries a paperclip around with them 24/7
