Lost PDA....gained idea

I arrived in Las Vegas late yesterday afternoon for NAB, had breakfast this morning with John O'Donnell from Equator Technologies, attended the opening 9AM keynote given by Robert Pepper, the acting chief of the FCC's office of strategic planning and policy analysis (his presentation was full of data on current status and trends in storage, processing, wired and wireless network bandwidth, etc. but woefully lacking in tangible hints on future policy directions the FCC might take), got up to leave afterwards….and promptly left behind my Pocket PC, sitting on my chair in the conference room. Came back a few minutes later to retrieve it….and it was gone. I'm hoping someone will turn it in to security; I'm here until Thursday afternoon.

The loss of the PDA itself isn't a big issue; it was a bulky, several-year-old iPaq 3835 with an embedded battery that no longer held charge very well. And I'd sync'd it to my PC early this morning, so my data's pretty current. But there's lots of personal information stored on that PDA, and I'm not enthralled with the thought of it being perused by a total stranger (no, I didn't enable password protection either). What I wouldn't give right now for wireless connectivity of some sort on it, and for the ability to set it up to periodically wake up and log in to an Internet-housed service, a service that I could set up to if necessary tell it to erase itself.

Anyone seen my Pocket PC?
