Some companies are now producing software for theft protection that can track the whereabouts of units, and some manufacturers are requiring that codes be entered before the system can be activated.
“If someone steals your GPS device, they’ve stolen more than just your device,” said Ken Westin, chief executive officer of GadgetTrak, in Portland, Ore. “It has your home address and where you’ve been for the past week.”
