Whoever stole my 8700 now has access to my SSN, and bank account records and I really want to prevent that from happening again. Does the 8800 still have the failsafe like the 8700 if too many incorrect passwords are entered it wipes itself?
Thanks for any help in advanced! Im looking forward to getting the 8800, seems noone has anything bad to say about it!

Also, if your on a BES, the BES Admin can send a remote kill command to the BB and have it wipe itself if you ever lose it or it is stolen. Thats one of the reasons I like being on a BES.
