Same thing happened to me.

As far as I know, they can. It just turns the thing into a glorified iPod. I'm fairly certain I saw mine being sold on craigslist the same night, but there was no way to confirm it.

That's why I use the password lock on my iP4 now. :(

They can still access everything on the phone, including photos and apps. The only thing they can't do is make voice calls or data calls using your account. In fact, I think they can still register it to another account.

They can over wifi. They can also sync it with a computer and dump all the passwords saved on the device.
