Get a palm ( any old one will do ), and get Passwords Plus from Dataviz. You
get a copy for your PC so there's a backup you can always access, and
there's a copy for the Palm so it's mobile. Everything's encrypted, but it's
easy to get at. If you lose the palm, your passwords and other information
are secure, but you can easily replace it and reinstall all of your
information.
Entries are sortable by category, and you can setup templates for new
entries with your choice of fields.
I love mine.
I'm sure there are other similar solutions, including some for Pocket PC if
that's your choice of mobile OS.

For a USB based solution look up
www.redcannon.com
They have an interesting product.

I'm wondering if anyone out there knows if there is a product that serves
as a pocketable password vault? I'm thinking something like a PCMCIA
card that has an LCD (touch)screen that can securely store all of my
passwords and maybe interfaces through a PCMCIA port to allow for
password management. I've seen a number of my co-workers store their
passwords on encrypted ASCII files on their PDAs, but that seems a bit
clunky to me. The USB options are closer to what I'm looking for, but if
I need my ATM pin number or some offline password, I would need a PC to
look up the info. Again, clunky. Writing the passwords down on a piece
of paper and carrying them around is a little too insecure for me.
Thanks in advance.
