If no stolen phone can ever be used again because all of them have been killed, then they have no value to a thief and they won't be stolen. I think that's pretty obvious, but I'm not sure of how they can do it. If someone steals a phone and turns it off right way, then nothing's going to kill it, right? It might then be sold and shipped to Hong Kong. Are way saying that there is no way that it can then be used in Hong Kong because of the kill switch? I just don't understand how that switch works -- what triggers it, and what is switching? Mike
