if I buy the Verizon insurance on my GN, does it cover theft?
I think it's 7 or 8 bucks a month additional?

now that I think about it, if someone breaks my car's windows and steal my Galaxy Nexus,
will my auto insurance cover it?

Or is there another mobile phone insurance that covers theft?

thank you for your advice!

You would have to report it as lost, and normally pay the $100 or whatever set deductible is for replacement.

Some auto insurance may cover this, ask your agent.

Well, you'll have to pay the deductible regardless. But yes, the Asurion coverage also includes theft or loss. And their deductible is going to be lower than anything you can get on your auto insurance. (My auto insurance covers it, and the deductible is $500. My property insurance also covers it, and that deductible is $250, I believe)

yep...my droid was stolen....I think it was 90 bucks and they sent me a new one.

Why the hell would you leave it in a car? Just a little curious...

Speaking out of experience:

-Some places won't let you have cellphones on you, even if its off.
-If my phone is plugged in to power and my head unit, and I just need to run in some place for a quick stop, I'll just leave my phone.

You should leave anything visible in the car at least!

you could have just read your answer on Verizon's website.... not being mean, just saying the easy answer was right there and quicker than waiting for a reply.
