The appropriately named Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance Toolkit includes a whole range of materials specifically put together to both introduce, and take you through this most important of legislation.
As security is such a major theme on the Act, many organizations are using the international ISO standards. The ISO 27001 Portal outlines these. A copy of the standards, and security policies, can be obtained via the ISO 17799 Toolkit.

Are there any SOX requirements regarding smart phone compliance on devices such as blackberry, iPhone, palm pre, etc.?
These carry e-mail which coud contain financial data theoretically, therefore does SOX apply rules regarding how they must be secured in terms of PIN protection, remote wiping, encryption, etc.?

No SOX sets no requirements on anything this specific. _________________ "The art of life is to deal with problems as they arise, rather than destroy one's spirit by worrying about them too far in advance" - Cicero

Agree with Denis - as being outside scope of SOX 404 ... Still, as this technology advances it's something to keep an eye on. As SOX is a self regulatory risk assessment exercise for minimum standards, you can certainly always go the 2nd mile in ensuring policies and procedures are in place (ensuring that financial info is protected in these environment as well) ... It's outside the scope of SOX but well worth doing
