    Wow, very sorry to hear that. I would suggest filing a police report. Was it stolen or lost? If the latter, hopefully they'll return it. I don't believe there is a way to erase your data. If it was stolen, the thief will probably delete your data, as they are probably more interested with the phone.

    Again, sorry this happened and good luck.

    Sorry to hear that, actually have your try these? I was able to find these that can help “remotely” erase your phone info. It’s worth a look. Seems like an alternative to erase your phone.

    www.mobilesky.com – remote erase
    www.spritesoftware.com – backup

    Good Luck.

    I know this is an older thread, but as I understand it, if you are on a corporate server, the admin can send remote "kills" to both disable the phone and wipe the data. Not sure about the phone part, but I am sure about the deletion of data.

    That was a part of my company's decision to move away from the Treo. That and the desire for a stable device that worked. Of course that remains to be seen with these BBs, but so far, pretty good.
