Enable the password security. And use a device that supports remote wiping and other security features. Not much help if you insist on an iPhone (though there might be an app for that ) but it is one of the reasons I really like my BB. Knowing that I can remotely wipe it is rather comforting to me.
And also a comfort factor with Windows Mobile devices as well. If your company has an Exchange server that you use your WM phone with, you can remotely wipe it yourself from OWA. Or if your company doesn't have Exchange, you can use the free Microsoft MyPhone service to remotely wipe your phone. With MyPhone you can also ring your phone if you lose it; Even if it's set to vibrate, MyPhone will force a ring.
