Password Protection?

[libo_hound]

I just got my X3 and was entering all of my security sensitive information (credit card numbers, passwords, bank acct info, etc) using the notes feature when I realized that there is no password protection! Is it even possible to protect your data?

Note 1: I am aware that I can place a password on the OS itself...but that's kind of a pain to input a password everytime I start up.

Note 2: Before anybody suggests getting ewallet...I'm not down with paying $20 for simple password protection.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I use the power on password. Takes all of 3.5 seconds to input a 4 digit password. If that. 4 numbers gives 10,000 possible combinations to I'm pretty sure that I'm ok with that. An alphanumeric password with 10 digits is closer to 604,661,760,000,000,000 depending on character set support etc.

Of course if you store sensitive information on storage card or built in storage then the power on password is useless. It only protects stuff in main memory.

There are encryption programs out there that will protect your files but I doubt that they are free. Try http://www.pocketgear.com and you might find something.

There is a free program, i remember seeing it, was that you could only use ax if yo had a valid cf or sd Card that you set, kinda like a key search google

There is a free version of IliumSoft's eWallet. It supports text passwords and encrypts the file, but it limis you to something like 5 cards. http://www.iliumsoft.com/site/ew/freewallet.htm. Not as good of a UI as CodeWallet but is free.
