Kill Pill Applications

I'm a relatively new PPC owner (Sprint Touch), and am starting to freak at the thought of losing my phone.

What security applications do you use for WM6 that contain a "kill pill" ability (i.e. the ability to send a coded SMS which will result in a hard-boot to the device)?

I can only find one program called remotePROTECT (www.scpsoft.com). It has some other cool features (in addition to the kill pill) like a hard boot after X number of incorrect password entries.

So, I guess my questions are:

1) Anyone have any other 3rd party applications that they would recommend?
2) Anyone use remotePROTECT that could offer feedback?
3) WM6 reportedly has remote hard boot abilities, but anything that I can find on it indicates it only works if you are using an enterprise type system (business users). Does anyone any experience with this, or know how it can be used by a private user?

THANKS!
