Security of the Kindle Store

Hello,

as the proud owner of a new Kindle DX associated with my Amazon Account, I noticed that when I use the Kindle to go to the Kindle Store, no name or password is asked when I order a book. Very convenient but what happens when someone steals my Kindle and starts ordering books using my account.
What is the procedure to avoid that someone is using this to, plunder your visa card associated with your account. In other words I'm looking either to a way that forces the Kindle to ask for a password if buy something in the Kindle or for the steps that you have to take if the kindle is stolen.

Thanks in advance
