Thread: internet speed ?

    Maybe I'm wrong, but can't a pickpocket steal your Palm just as easily as index cards? And isn't a piece of electronics a more likely target for thieves than a few index cards?

    Not that there's anything wrong with a Palm, of course. Just curious to see if I'm missing something.

    I think that for Alexander (hth) the main aspect of the GTD system security is the "no data loss" security.

    I think I have to clarify the aspects:

    1. Confidential information is password protected.
    2. I use a multi-layer backup, so total data loss is nearly impossible. (The backup relies on tools which are already in use, so it doesn't cost any extra time except of the first setup or a restore in case of a loss.)

    @Brian: A Palm is naturally a more valuable target for thieves. But there are further usablity aspects which lead me to the use of a Palm.

    Exclamation Palm's built-in password protection is weak.

    Thanks for this addendum. I use a separate encryption tool.
