Ted Whitely (whitelyt), has reviewed 1Pass from OmegaOne. OmegaOne is the same company that brings you Battery Pack and Journal Bar.

"Overall, I have found 1-Pass to be a very nice addition to the security-conscience user. 1-Pass is very simple to install and use but very flexible to configure and customize. 1-Pass is also ideal for deployment of PDAs in corporate environments."

I don't see the advantage of this over the built-in password protection of WM2k3. I use an 8 to 12 character passphrase, combination of numbers, upper and lower case letters, and special characters to secure my device. I'm not worried in the least about someone getting into the device should I be careless enough to lose it. They'd have to hard reset it, which would wipe out the data anyway. There's only one application (the name of which escapes me for the moment) that I consider of value as a third-party security app. It can be configured to wipe out your device if the incorrect password is entered x amount of times. So if you're REALLY paranoid about your data, that would be the app to get. But 1-Pass just doesn't excite me.

Any word on when they'll release the 'pro' version and charge existing users for the right to update???

Great review, Ted. Does the program allow for a mixture of the numbers and hardware keys?

Are you talking about using hardware keys and numbers to unlock the screen?

Raynne413

Yeah, like left, right, 4, 2, home, for example.

From what I can gather, no. The hardware keys is used to get to the today screen. The numeric password is used to get to the 1-Pass options screen.

Also, with 1-Pass installed you cannot sync until you enter the numeric password on the desktop.
