Original Press Release:
SplashData Announces SplashID 3.0 for Palm Powered Handhelds
New version of most popular personal identification organizer offers enhanced security and customization features
San Jose, CA (PALMSOURCE) - - February 10, 2004 - - SplashData, Inc., the leading developer of "virtual wallet" applications for mobile devices, today announced a major upgrade to its best-selling personal identification organizer, SplashID. SplashID 3.0, which securely maintains personal identification information on a Palm Powered(TM) handhelds and desktop computer, now offers a host of new features aimed at simplifying the security of data and enabling users to customize the program to suit their particular preferences.
"Palm OS enthusiasts who use SplashID daily report that it is an invaluable product designed to provide better security features to protect a user's most sensitive personal information stored on a Palm Powered device," said Larry Berkin, director of developer marketing, for PalmSource."
SplashID safely and securely stores all kinds of personal identification information including user names, passwords, credit card numbers, calling card numbers, bank account data, PINs, medical insurance information, and more. Information is stored in a secure, encrypted format and is quickly accessible on a Palm Powered handheld or desktop computer. SplashID includes both handheld and desktop software (for Windows and Macintosh) and the data is automatically synchronized between the two.
SplashData's development team focused its efforts on personalization and simplification with SplashID 3.0. For example, while users have long enjoyed the ability to select from the program's library of icons to graphically represent each record, SplashID now provides support for custom icons. These icons can be purchased from third-party vendors or created using applications such as Icon Manager, software that enables users to create and edit an endless array of icons for use with SplashID and other popular applications such as DateBk and Agendus. Users can now assign records to categories for filtering purposes, such as "Personal" or "Business," and pre-select which columns will be displayed based on the type of records being viewed. In addition, users can create an unlimited number of templates with pre-defined field labels for different information types such as "Credit Card Numbers" and "Web Logins" while customizing field labels on a per-record basis.
Other key new features to SplashID 3.0 include enhanced security. Many people, especially those in data-sensitive industries, are forced by policy to regularly change their passwords. These passwords often require a certain number of letters and numbers and it can be difficult to constantly create memorable pass-codes. SplashID simplifies this process by auto-generating codes that meet the user's specific criteria. Another new security feature allows users to specify which fields they wish to mask so that contents (such as a password or credit card number) cannot be easily viewed by other individuals while SplashID is being used on a handheld or desktop computer. Further, SplashID will now automatically create an encrypted back-up of the SplashID desktop database, ensuring that records are secure should data loss occur on the handheld or desktop.

SplashID 3.0 for Palm OS and Windows will be available in February at www.splashdata.com for $29.95. Current users can upgrade for $9.95. Mac OS Desktop software will be available in March. SplashID may also be purchased in a bundle as part of the SplashWallet Suite, which includes SplashID, SplashMoney, SplashPhoto and SplashShopper for $49.95.
