iphone has feature can wipe phone after number of incorrect passcode attempts. know if set? way of ensuring data doesn't wrong hands if phone stolen.

make sure enable feature on new phone.

assuming did have passcode set up, it's new 'owner' of stolen iphone have set new, erasing of existing data - no point in worrying now.

cheers,

rtp.
