Hi Marcelo,



unencrypted data is _not_ secure.

Encrypt your data and you'll have a chance to lock your bank account
card just in time, once your iPod gets lost (or stolen).

(Is it necessary to carry sensitive data around on your iPod??? Can't
believe it...)


As you might have guessed, I'm one of those "more neurotic" persons.
And more and more people join us --- to late in many cases.  Encryption
is cheep.  Unencrypted data can be expensive.
