Currently, I do not have any security enabled on my handspring mainly because I hotsync on Linux. I'm currently looking at one of the following 3 products: TealLock:http://www.tealpoint.com/softlock.htm TrustDigital's PDA Secure:http://www.trustdigital.com/prod1.htm Palmation's Commander:http://www.palmation.com/software/index.html Since I routinely use Jpilot on Linux, I want to make sure that these products will not prevent me from both syncing on Linux and using the data. While most of the data on my PDA is not a problem, I do keep some passwords. I think that PDA Secure is a bit overkill. TealLock provides both encryption and entry lockout. Palmation's Commander provides the lockout, but apparently no encryption. The concern about the encryption is my access to the data after a hotsync. And, the ability to sync under Linux. From my cursory investigation, Palmation's Commander seems to be able to allow syncs on Linux. So, my question is has anyone had experience with the above 3 products? -- Jerry Feldman <gaf at blu.org> Associate Director Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9
