62,000 phones and PDAs left in London cabs

In the last six months, Londoners have left 55,843 mobile phones and 6,193 other handheld devices in the back of black cabs, according to a report by Credant Technologies.

... Pointing out that many of today’s smartphones and MIDs can store up to 10,000 Word documents, 11,000 pictures, 500,000 contact details or 1.1 million emails, Credant notes they are an easy target for identity thieves.
