SPRITE MOBILE TERMINATOR SOLUTION GETS GPS SUPPORT - TRACK DOWN YOUR LOST PHONE

AUCKLAND, NZ. 24 October 2007 - Sprite Mobile Inc. today announced the addition of GPS location support to Sprite Terminator 1.1, their newest content protection application for all Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6 smartphones.
Sprite Terminator protects confidential information on mobile devices from unauthorized access in the event of phone loss or theft.
Today’s advanced phones are so much more than just communications device. They are address books, organizers, email clients, photo stores, and even tools to edit or view documents and presentations. The recent high profile incidents of privacy breaches associated with phones which were lost or stolen or even just passed on without being adequately cleared down have highlighted the need for a solution such as Terminator.

The software works on any Windows Mobile phone and once installed, hides away in the background until activated when required. If a phone is lost, owners just need to send an SMS messge to their phone to retrieve the GPS coordinates of the phone and a link to a map where they can see the location. Owners can lock down the phone so that a password is required to access the data or for additional peace of mind a wipe command can be sent which clears the entire contents of their phone including memory cards. This can also be used to decommision phones before passing them to friends or colleagues. If a phone is stolen, and the thief replaces the SIM card, Sprite Terminator detects this and informs the owner via a SMS message to the previously partnered phone so that the phone can be locked or wiped. Another option is to remotely query the phone for recent call activity as this may help track down the phone. For phone users without built-in or external GPS support, an update will be available which provides cell tower details.

Availability

Sprite Terminator 1.1 is available from 17 October August 2007 and has a MSRP of $14.95 USD.
