Contact AT&T immediately and tell them what happened. And if you haven't already, file a police report.

Sorry to hear the bad news.

I would also change all of your email passwords so that the thief can't send or receive any new emails under your accounts.

For everyone else with an iphone, now is the time to turn on the passcode feature (with optional delete).

For what purpose? Apple does not keep a list of stolen devices.

At most, you could cancel AppleCare, if you bought it, and receive a refund on the remaining time.
