I've used SplashID for years -- and like others that have commented, use the Desktop version as much, or more, than on the PDA. Beyond passwords, I use it to keep track of insurance, frequent flyer, credit card, ID & SSN for kids & spouse. I no longer keep any of that info anywhere else on my PC or Treo.

I purchased Passwords Plus. It has both a Palm Program and a Desktop program which sync everytime you sync your Treo. It is totally customizable and is easy to use. I love it.

If I dropped it from the Eiffel Tower I would probably jump after it!

Consider using a personal code system for your passwords. Something that is simple for you to remember but only used for parts of a password, but challenging enough for would be thieves. I'm not interested in entering exact data for any of my passwords no matter the crypto methods.

Yes, I've used Passwords Plus with both my Mac and PC and found it to be excellent. The desktop client makes data entry very easy. I regularly exported the db from the desktop client as an additional backup. Dataviz is a very reliable company to deal with. Unfortunately I had to ditch PWP when I moved to WinMob, but I recommend it for POS.

How about eWallet? Anyone use that one? I have just switched over from the Palm 650 to Treo 700wx. On the 650, I used Passwords Plus and eWallet.
