iAlertU ReviewClose! But no cigar! - Version: 0.29b, 7/12/2008 08:26PM PST

I can confirm the bugs the others mentioned. Sometimes it does take a picture, sometimes it doesn't. But it never emails it anywhere I told it to.
But the show-off is priceless! Cool bling! And I think any thief will remove him/herself post-haste when that siren goes off! Terrific!

But the 'Beta' testing has been going on for 2 years now. When will there be a version 1.X ?

When setting off alarm by closing macbook, as snapshot is being taken.. the computer refuses to wake after turning alarm off and reopening. Unfreezes if you turn alarm on and off again.
