Stolen Windows Mobile 6.5 HTC Diamond wiped remotely

sol-trujillo

It was reported last week that Telstra’s Sol Trujillo had his HTC Touch Diamond running Windows Mobile 6.5 lifted off his person during MWC. And today APC is reporting that the device was remotely wiped of both OS and user data once the theft was realized according to an anonymous higher up at Microsoft. We’ve contacted Microsoft as well and will update if we hear otherwise.

I’m not really sure how I feel about this. Microsoft was able to completely wipe the device remotely? Hmm…
