Beta-testers wanted

During the past months, we have devoted most of our time to an exciting, super-secret Orbicule project. As we are almost done, we would like to have some feedback from outside the company.
If you are interested in helping us make this project succeed, feel free to drop us an email at beta@orbicule.com. We are especially interested in beta testers owning both a Mac and an iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod touch).

Please include the following information:
- Your name and address
- Other software you helped beta-test
- Mac OS X version
- iOS device type and OS version
- iOS UDID (see this post for instructions)

The beta program will start on Tuesday 15 February. Selected testers will receive the first version on that day.

UPDATE: We are no longer looking for testers, thanks for the enthusiastic response!

Undercover user guide

Information about Undercover is quite abundant on our website. This includes our 'how it works' section, the searchable FAQ, the demo movie and even this weblog. To make it even easier to get started with Undercover, we created a user guide in PDF format. It bundles everything you need to know about protecting your Mac against theft.

Introducing Incognito

We just released a Safari extension that protects your online privacy. It's called Incognito and it blocks companies like e.g. Google and Facebook from gathering information about you (or your browsing habits) outside the context of their own websites. The plugin started as a personal project by Albert Jorissen, one of our engineers. He was concerned about the fact that some large companies have access to a staggering amount of information about his online life. Have a look at the Incognito page for more information on this free Safari extension.

Head over to our recoveries page to read how Undercover helped the Florida police to catch a creepy thief / stalker, or how Undercover recovered a brand new iPad in South Carolina. We also have a detailed recovery story from Lille, France and a testimonial from Helsingborg, Sweden.
