Powerbook alarm system!

iAlertU is a real anti-theft application for your Powerbook MacBook Pro.
When activated (via the IR remote control!) software uses the motion sensors built into late model PowerBooks and MacBooks to determinate if the laptop is being lifted or carried away.

The application is still in alpha, but you should check the demonstration video: quite impressive.

[thanks Michael for pointing out that it works only on the MacBooks]

Comments and Insults:

You sould say "macbook pro". Powerbooks dont have remotes.

I have the very latest model of the powerbook and iAlertU does not work for it either.

Ooops. Corrected the entry! Thanks ;)
