Sprint is testing a new service that lets owners of lost or stolen phones remotely erase their private data from prying eyes. The service will also work with Sprint’s wireless enabled PDAs and Pocket PCs. This would ease a lot of corporate minds about the sensitive data that employees lose when their device is lost or stolen. They expect the service to go live sometime next year and the same service will also be able to update phone/PDA software remotely.
