Report it stolen then it will be blocked and whomever has it won't be able to use it so it will be completely useless to them. But in the meantime keep ringing it in the hope that someone picks it up and returns it. You never know it might still be at the cafe and they are waiting for someone to claim it. I hope you get it back |

Not sure if they can trace it but they can get it blocked so that it doesn't matter what sim card they put in they will not be able to use it. |

Well, if you block it, they can't use it anymore, that gives you a good chance that they threw the sim card out ages ago. Next to that, every single imei or code on your phone can easily be flashed to another code. Don't you insure your mobiles when you buy an expensive one? You should in the future  You can even throw the phone in a pond yourself on purpose and get a new one

Did you have a mobile me account? I have mine enabled on my iphone, so that if it goes missing, I can get a gps reading telling me where it is (approximately). |

Still, If they are smart crooks, they'd throw away the SIM card, turn off the phone and turn it on when you're gonna change the phone IMEI. |
