Can the memory stick be locked if lost?

Hi
Although the P900 and SIM can be locked to limit loss if stolen, is the
memory stick also locked, or can it be read if put in another phone? If not
locked, this makes it undesirable to store things on it.

Michael,
I am not aware of this. In my experience with memory stick duo is that it is
not like a SIM card. It is essentially the same type of memory that is used
in digital camera's etc.

Yes it can be read if put in another phone. And I guess it depends what you
want to store on it as to whether it's undesirable to use. I have all my
personal info (web logins, bank details, credit card numbers etc) stored on
mine but encrypted using a 3rd party app for the phone. Can't think of
anything else that's stored on it that would worry me if someone else got
access to it.

What is the "3rd party app" you mention? It sounds useful.

There are a few for the P800/900 that do a similar job. I use HandySafe by
Epocware.
