eWallet 5.0 beta - store data securely on your PC or PDA
by Brad Linder Dec 1st 2006
People have a tendency to think I'm weird for carrying a tiny computer with a 3.7-inch screen in my pocket with me wherever I go. But having a PDA for me means not having to carry around an mp3 player, a calendar, address book and video game system. I'm not quiet ready to throw out my wallet yet, but you could make the case that it's actually safer to encrypt and store your credit card info on a PDA than to carry a wallet filled with cash and credit cards.Illium Software's eWallet is one of the leaders in credit card and password management. Illium just launched a public beta of eWallet 5.0 with a variety of new features. While eWallet really shines on a PDA, you can sync with a PC, or run a PC-only client. In fact, eWallet 5.0 beta runs on Windows Mobile 2003/2003SE/5.0/Smartphone, Palm OS 4.0 or higher devices, Windows XP and Vista, and UMPCs.
Some new features in 5.0:
- Synchronize unlimited wallets with unlimited PCs
- Synchronize to a server or another PC on a network
- Synchronize to removable storage devices like USB drives or removable hard drives
- Support for Vista
- New icon set
- Create a wallet with no password for less secure data.
Now if only I could get New Jersey to issue my driver's license in a digital format.

Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
