I read through all 26 pages ( sad I know ) and it appears to be kosher.

If you own a PS3 it might pay to also invest in a PSP and PS3 camera ! lol

Here is the story:-


"MY PS3 REFUSED TO BE A VICTIM "

"So this past Wednesday Dec 16th somebody broke into my apartment while I was at work and stole about 24 ps3 video games,
45 ps3 games, 52 snes games, all of my consoles including my PS3 and components including a PS3 camera.
What the thieve didn't know is that I had my PS3 connected to my PSP. As some of you know, once you hook up your PSP to your PS3
you can remotely control your PS3 through your PSP through a local or internet connection.
I tried every day, every hour to see if by any chance the thieve connected the PS3 to the internet, surely on Friday Dec 18th at around 11:30pm
I was able to turn on the PS3 from my home by using my PSP using my internet connection.
I opened a chat room, turned on the camera and surely enough I got to see a close look at the thieves face!
(probably looking at it wondering why the PS3 had turned on by itself!!!)
, with my digital camera readily available I took a picture of the PSP screen with the thieves face!! Called the police
and they quickly recognized the person!!!!
LONG STORY SHORT, I GOT MY PS3 WITH NO DAMAGE WHATSOEVER AND ALL OF MY GAMES WERE RECOVERED!. "

original story from this site.
