Ericsson and Intel developing GPS kill switch : Obsessable Technology News: "Ericsson announced a collaboration today with Intel to offer GPS-based anti-theft technology to notebooks by ensuring compatibility between Ericsson's Mobile Broadband Modules and Intel's Anti-Theft PC Protection Technology. Basically, if you were to purchase a laptop with this technology installed, an SMS message upon report of the theft would entirely lock down the machine and once the machine was located and recovered, another key could render it operable again."
