Cloud Support Makes mSecure Outstanding
From
eWeek:
All around, I'm hard-pressed to find anything I don't like about mSecure. For a few hours, I thought I wanted it to validate credit card checksums during record input, but that's as close as I could come to identifying a missing feature. In short, I'm impressed enough with mSecure that I may finally throw away that notebook I've kept for the last 15 years.

Review: HanDBase for Android
From
GearDiary:
HanDBase is one of those mobile app titles that anyone who has been around mobile devices for a while will surely recognize. HanDBase, by DDH Software, was introduced for Palm OS initially, eventually migrating to Windows Mobile, BlackBerry, iOS, and now Android. While I don’t use database programs extensively, I have used one program or another for a long while to track media collections or other forms of inventories.
If you’re new to HanDBase, it is a relational database program with cross-platform availability, including Mac and PC desktop versions with a sync conduit. The desktop software has the ability to import either comma separated or tab delimited files, which are then stored as pdb files (yes, the old Palm database format). Because a lot of folks who may be collecting information for databases may want to enter that information in a sequence of format that is easier to use than staring at a straight database sheet, HanDBase also includes a forms designer that allows the user to create customized data entry forms.

Protect Passwords, Save Sensitive Information with SplashID
From
The iPhone App Review:
Though there are numerous applications that offer such similar safety services, SplashID seems to go above and beyond by emphasizing their security and versatility, as one can sync this application with any Mac or Windows computer out there. Yes, this means you must memorize a new password. But just think – this shall be the only one you ever need to remember now, for it shall unleash the rest of your important information upon input. And with the ability to sync your data with your computer, you (hopefully) won’t have to fear losing all your most crucial data to technology failure, though you will have to lose a few dollars in the process.

Appletell reviews SplashID KeySafe USB drive
From
Appletell:
The SplashID Key Safe is a handy tool if you find yourself using a lot of different
computers with which you need to share passwords. It’s a USB drive (2 GB) with software to store and generate passwords, as part of a database that stores other information, too.
The SplashID
software takes up a tiny amount of the 2GB. After you create a Master ID (and password), it presents you with a simple database program for storing all your personal information. Web log-ins, sure, but also insurance info, emergency contacts, birthdays, clothes sizes, really anything you want. Beyond the basic fields for URLs and, of course, passwords, there are predesignated and blanks fields allowing you to store info like your car’s VIN and license plate number, along with your insurance log-in or what your spouse has hinted she might like for her birthday. You can also attach a file (like a PDF or image) to the record.

The benefit, of course, is that your usernames, passwords, credit card numbers, frequent-flier numbers, and other critical data get to go where you go.

SplashShopper Review for iPhone and iPod Touch
From
Appmodo:
In addition to groceries....there are plenty of other types of lists you can make, and SplashShopper has databases for most all of those categories. Even in the movies database, SplashShopper has meta data about each movie that is already automatically filled in for you.
Another cool thing about the SplashShopper app is the compliment of a PC or Mac-based app that makes it easy to sync and backup your lists to your computer. Simply open up the PC-client and sync your device and the lists will sync-up.

SplashID puts the KEY in USB Key
From
ZDNet's "Mobile Gadgeteer":
I think the concept of making it look like a key is pretty clever, and could resonate with techies and non-techs alike... I have played around with versions of SplashID in the past, but this one definitely piqued my interest. With the ability to completely remove all traces of itself on both a Mac and PC, this is sure to be a winner for many people who are concerned about identity theft, privacy, and security.

Manage Your Holiday Madness With SplashShopper Application
From
GearDiary:
Splashopper, which is available for iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows Mobile, Palm OS (Treo/Centro), Windows and Mac (I would hate to be an app developer these days, wouldn’t you?–all those platforms!), is a shopping manager. It helps you manage different types of shopping lists, from groceries to gift shopping. If you get the handheld ($4.99) and desktop ($9.95) versions, you can sync between the desktop and handheld lists, which sounds pretty slick, honestly.

SplashShopper review
From
PalmAddicts:
SplashShopper is a shopping list manager that's available for PalmOS, Windows Mobile, iPhone, BlackBerry, Windows, and MacOSX. If you haven't tried out a shopping list on your smartphone, why not?! There just isn't a better, more convenient place to put your shopping list, and with SplashShopper available for so many platforms, you've just run out of excuses. Go grab the
30-day trial, then come back and finish my review.SplashShopper is a one-stop-shop for all your list making needs. To get you started, SplashData has included a handful of example lists ranging from Books, Movies, and Music to the all-important Groceries. They've even populated these example lists with a number of items to get you started, which is especially helpful with a grocery list. Now, anyone who's been reading my PalmAddict posts long enough probably knows how much I like making lists. Natara Bonsai is pretty much my favorite piece of software. But for handling shopping lists, you go to a dedicated shopping list app. And, remarkably, SplashShopper has more features than this compulsive list-maker can use.Each item in your list can contain a name, a store, a category, two custom fields (for groceries, Splashdata has suggested a description and an aisle), a quantity and unit of measure, a price and a note. Considering the number of fields in this database, Splashdata has wisely incorporated both an auto-fill feature, and a customizable fly-down list for each field. Despite this complexity, adding new items to your grocery list is pretty quick and easy. If you are an even more compulsive person than I am (astounding, really, but possible), you might actually track the price and aisle information of every item on your shopping list. By doing so, SplashShopper can give you a quick total cost estimate, or even organize your list by aisle, so you can shop more efficiently. That greatly exceeds my needs, but it's terrific to see that sort of attention to detail.

SplashShopper Review
From
PalmAddicts:
You can use
SplashShopper to keep track of your holiday gift shopping. I am a forgetful guy, so I have to write down exactly what each person I’ve talked to wants, or I just end up buying them something last minute. I’m sure none of you have ever done anything like that...Don’t forget that
SplashShopper also has a Desktop version for Mac and Windows, which can allow you to easily manage your larger lists. Then you’re just a sync away from keeping your computer and device up to date.

LAPTOP Magazine: Tips and Tools to Take Better Notes
Ditch the composition pads and start loading those copious lecture notes into PhatNotes. This program works with Microsoft XP and Vista Tablet PCs, and thanks to an easy-to-use interface, Outlook-integration, and a few other snazzy features, it’s guaranteed to help students use class time more wisely. Students can enter notes by dragging and dropping text from Microsoft Word, or by typing directly into PhatNotes’ processor—which is identical to Word, save a few tweaks. For instance, you can link one note file to another, assign attachments to notes (useful if your professor shares images, PowerPoint
presentations, or Word documents that relate to her lecture), add hyperlinks to the text, or use the Context Analyzer to assign phone numbers and e-mails to the notes as well. Why would you do that? Because PhatNotes works on smart phones with Windows Mobile 6.1, too. So if you’re using your BlackJack II to browse notes from an old lecture and want to call your study buddy to double-check a factoid, you can do it in just one click.

Why Haven’t You Organized Your Passwords?
There are many great database applications made for storing passwords.
A previous Lifehack article by Leo Babauta lists ten free apps you can use, but I like
SplashID, which costs $20, is available for both Mac and PC, and synchronizes its desktop component with almost all major PDA platforms. I really like having my information with me, securely encrypted, when I am away from my desk. Whatever application you choose, DON’T use a Word or Excel document for this purpose (especially one named “PASSWORDS”) that can be easily infiltrated.
Along with passwords and other login information, I also enjoy using the SplashID database for keeping many other data tidbits, such as software licensing information, identification numbers like my family’s Social Security numbers, my cars’ VIN numbers, computer support information and service tags, and frequent flyer program numbers.

Why Haven’t You Organized Your Passwords?
In my work with clients I have run into passwords in all kinds of unbelievably random and insecure places. I always shrink back from them when I see them… I don’t want to know! Passwords are the key to unimaginable ruin in the wrong hands, and it consistently shocks me how careless people are with this information.
