So I left my HP handheld at Barnes & Nobles...
 

.. on a bench far out of the way along with some books during closing time. therefore, the closers got to it.

so i called up the store this morning and it's not in the lost and found. :disgust

So when should i start checking ebay?

start checking ebay and the local pawn shops now!

g/l getting it back. Unless you offer a substantial reward (i.e. close to the price what they can sell it for), I doubt you'll ever see it again. I would make it a point to check out the pawn shops as squishy said, if it was a joe slacker he may just try to get rid of it on the cheap.

yikes I'm sorry....

it's gone man, pretty much zero chance you will get it back...

you are so uplifting.

but i know it's true :(


there is an extremely high likelyhood that an employee stole it. there are theives that work in that store!

One of the best reasons to password protect the thing.

that sucks

the next one i get will have biometric activation on/off

but some dumbass will STILL STEAL IT ...grrrr

at least they wont steal the data of the protected device.
