Description
Use the picture as the password to unlock your PDA instantly
with a single tap! Text passwords are too tiresome for PDA
protection - you turn your PDA on dozens of times a day, expecting
quick access to your data. PicturePassword displays the picture
of your choice when you turn your PDA on.

You tap the secret point and access your PDA in less than
a second. Security has never been easier! PicturePassword eliminates
Picture Code guessing and monitors access attempts. If an
incorrect Picture Code is entered, PicturePassword will prompt
for the System password, which is hard to guess. Also you
can instantly unlock your PDA by pressing the secret hardware button
sequence. Picture and button codes work simultaneously, you
may choose the most comfortable way to unlock your handheld.
