I can't seem to find this in the market.
Is there an app you can run that will sound an alarm when someone picks up my droid?

It would be useful to deter theft and/or messing with my phone..

I'm not usually concerned about this but for some reason I just think this is a great idea. Hopefully an app developer will come up with something.

I know many people here are very concerned about their security. Imagine, perfect for the guy who doesn't want his girlfriend fishing through his phone.:D

Normally not a problem for me as I generally don't hand my phone to people nor leave it 'laying around' unattended. Even when I do I seriously doubt anyone would pick it up with the intention of steeling it.

But then I'm 6'2" @ 250# AND always carry my .40 XDm so that may have something to do with it:icon_ devil:.

I can see the motion activated alarm being used for a security alarm type thing....hang it on the doorknob in a bag. Drop it in a purse, etc. I think you need to set the alarm each time you want it set so that doesn't sound useful for when you set the phone down and you don't want someone accessing it. Locking the phone with a security pattern you always need to unlock it with sounds better suited for keeping prying eyes away.
