A wife and a new mom of a baby boy who live in New York's Long Island suburb, Alison DeLauzon; experienced the rise of technology that empowers modern gadgets to protect themselves. It all started when she accidentally left behind her set of cameras at Florida-located restaurant, where she dined before. Among the lost cameras, there's a Canon digital camera along with the Eye-Fi 2GB SD memory in it.If you haven't know yet, an Eye-Fi SD is a memory card that will automatically uploads pictures to a home computer or online photosharing service as soon as the user is linked to a familiar wireless network set by the factory.
"I opened up the Eye-Fi manager on the computer and, lo and behold, there are the guys that stole our cameras. Not only is it the guy who stole our camera ... but the guy took a picture of (his accomplice) holding our other camera." said DeLauzon
Soon enough she found out that the culprits are employees of the restaurant, but DeLauzon didn't want to sue them because she thinks that getting justice was not as important to her as retrieving her memories of her baby boy. She added: "When we finally got it back, my husband and I spent the night just sitting and watching the videos -- stupid videos, like him feeding himself for the first time or him pulling himself up in his crib for the first time. We sat down one night and just relished it."
Aawww... such a heart-warming story isn't it? Wait, which one is it: that she got her cameras back or the smart technologies that can bring your precious little gadgets back to your greedy hands? ;-p
