I think the original idea was a sensible one, but I doubt many would be willing to risk losing all their data for the rare situation where it would be a security advantage.
I think there is something to be said for nifty GPS features. I've lost my phone... why not SMS it and ask it to email me its location? :) Security-wise, however, it's a patchy strategy despite how cool it sounds. It isn't going to stop the physical phone being stolen, but to what extent can the Moko be encrypted to protect your data? Sean.
