Question Password Safe (free, with Blowfish encryption)

Don't think I've seen anything on this. Password Safe (an open source freeware desktop password manager) now has a PPC version that seems to work well on my Axim (just copied the .dat file from my desktop over, and used same password to access it). Does anyone see weaknesses in this approach (Blowfish encryption on a PDA)?

previous development at http://www.counterpane.com/passsafe.html

I have no connection with these people, just trying to find a solution and see if it has holes!

Blowfish is a pretty dang powerful form of encryption. I don't see any weaknesses in using blowfish to encrypt a simple password. It's pretty neat how blowfish works; genious stuff.
