I would call and ask to speak with a manager at whatever resort you are staying at. Make sure you tell them you have GPS on the thing and it shows it is still in Florida. If necessary, speak with that persons manager. You need to be a squeeky wheel about this.

Hi,

I moved this to resorts because it will show up on the "front page" this way, and it is an important question.

I hope it works out.

Cheers, Wendy

We left our most expensive SLR camera at VB and didn't realize it until we got a postcard in the mail about I weeks later.

There is hope.

Can you go on Find My iPhone and post a message to the screen asking for a phone call if found?

Yeah, they need to know you've got tracking software on that sucker-it might make it magically appear...

We have Webroot on our mobile devices-we can make it "scream" remotely and we can also "brick" it if we need to. It's a great incentive for whomever has your device to give it back...

I have webroot installed too....

With mobile phones costing $500+ mow, they are very attractive to thieves.
