I would like to see an app for the Moto Atrix / any other SP with fingerprint security that, after a specified number of bad unlock attempts, the phone will activate gps, take photo from front camera, and send a sms/mms/email to the owner with the information to locate the device and/or wipe it.

Android is a privilege-separated operating system, in which each application runs with a distinct system identity (Linux user ID and group ID). Parts of the system are also separated into distinct identities. Linux thereby isolates applications from each other and from the system.

Well i guess that makes the app more difficult to deploy on multiple devices, but for the atrix, doesn't that just mean the original fingerprint security app get replaced with the new one?
