[2]The Remote XT system uses software to link customers’ mobile phones directly to a secure remote server, which stores all their data from phone numbers to text messages and e-mails. If the owner’s phone is lost or stolen, they can dial a 24-hour call centre and have it registered. The handset is then disabled, and cannot even be used if a new SIM card is put in. At the same time, the system sets off an alarm sounding like a high-pitched(尖声的) scream, which can only be stopped by removing the battery. [3]Existing data is also wiped off the phone but, because the information has been stored centrally, as soon as the victim gets a news phone, the system designers said. [4] “By making mobiles unusable to anyone but the rightful owner the phones become worthless and we will see the market for stolen handsets stopped once and for all,” said Mark Whiteman, managing director of Remote XT. For the moment the system is aimed at business customers and comes with a fee of 9.99 pounds per month, possibly available to the majority of average users within two years as mobile technology advances. |
