Droid Pro Stolen - Any additional steps to take?

My Droid Pro was stolen from my hotel room yesterday in Edinburgh. I called the hotel and they haven't found it so it leads me to believe that either they didn't find it or someone took it while I was out.

1. I went on verizonwireless and deactivated my phone.

2. Filed a claim with Asurion and ordered a replacement.

(I had a detachable memory card on the phone and a screen lock was in place.)

What additional steps would you take in this situation?

If you had added a tracking program such as Mobile Defense or something else, you could have wiped clean the phone.

I believe Asurion requires a police report also.

Lookout has a remote, after the fact "find my phone" app: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.lookout.labs.planb&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5sb29rb3V0LmxhYnMucGxhbmIiXQ.. Install this from a computer and it will send the phone location to you via gmail (full details on the web market page). You may also want to see what Asurion has in the way of remote wipe capabilities to remove all your data off the phone in case whoever has it gets past the screen lock.
