I have a client who is worried about losing her palm and exposing her private info. I found this: http://www.jawstech.com/datagator/datagatorhomepage.htm
It looks nice but i was wondering if anybody out there has had any experience with this or has any suggestions as far as encryption goes on the palm platform.

thanks

There are a couple of applications I can recommend:

1. Web Confidential <http://www.web-confidential.com>
There's a mac, Pilot and PDA (palm) version. Has built in encryption, so data is securely locked away.

- The support by the author is great, and I highly recommend it

2. Secure Memo Pad (Certicom)
Replacement for MemoPad. Available for free from Certicom's site <http://www.certicom.com>
(Encryption used is Elliptic curve cryptography.)

- Also highly recommended.

3. PalmPGP
- Now available from two sources:
a. freeware - www.pgpi.com (open source pgp for palm. in beta testing, not for production use)
b. Commercial - www.nai.com (for commercial/production use)
