Virtually Physical Security?

What happens when you lose your Kindle?

The rate at which physical devices are managing our virtual worlds is always becoming more apparent. The question becomes, what happens when you lose one of these devices. Many of these contain quite a lot of personal information about ourselves, but also the people we know. If you have a phone that contains a web browser, it likely will contain lots of passwords and site history, phone numbers, text messages, instant messaging transcripts, and who knows what else. It's a scary thought.

It's still not a problem most people worry about (yet), but it makes losing one's wallet seem trivial in comparison.
