    There's an app called Mobile Defense that seems pretty cool. I don't have it yet but I'm considering it.

    Thanks for the reminder, I downloaded Mobile Defense but haven't tried it. Maybe I should see how it works before I actually need it

    I just replaced wave secure with it. The GPS is spot on and it even gives you the apprx address. They should be adding a backup/restore function soon too.

    The Alarm is f'ing annoying too..As is the text message you can send to the screen...

    Somehow I got lost in the thread. What app is this alarm and text message that you talking about? Wave Secure or Mobile Defense.

    I've chose Wave Secure and I'm thinking maybe I should look at Mobile Defense.

    i was an early adopter of mobiledefense, then i read in these forums that wavesecure was the one to use. so i tried i out, but went back to mobiledefense. i must say mobiledefense is a lot nicer. it doesnt have the backup feature like wavesecure. but i do regular backups anyways.

    Yes, so do I. I have My Backup installed. So what is the difference between the two?
