Well MJ I know how you feel. On a recent business trip to Asheville, NC, I was at a Hampton in in a very nice area and someone broke into my rental car and stole my personal GPS that my sons bought me for my B-day about 5 years ago.

It was an older unit, so I was upset, but I knew making a police report and claiming insurance would not pay off, so I just let the hotel know about it so they could be aware and maybe increase their security watches.

I put this under live and learn and on my way home I was sitting in the airport, next thing I got a call from the hotel, they were looking at their security cameras and saw something strange, they were actually looking for something else, but saw two people going car to car. The hotel called the police and the suspects were IDed immediately and they were picked up.

The next phone call I received was the local police and we went through my GPS and cords, all recovered and returned.
