Have you ever been in the situation of arriving at some destination only to notice that you forgot your phone at home/the office/somewhere else? You’ve probably got a sinking lost feeling at that point. But, at least you know your phone is safe and will be reunited with you in the near future. Now, imagine losing a phone or having it stolen. There’s a number of gadget recovery services and technologies that can help you find and possibly recover your lost or stolen mobile treasure. If you have a BlackBerry, you now have a new potential recovery tool to consider…

BlackBerry ER

It has the interesting ability to notify you if someone replaces the your SIM card with another one. BlackBerry ER also uses an integrated GPS to locate the stolen BlackBerry’s location.

It is currently available at a discounted early bird service price of $14.97.
