Thanks for the heads up, JS.

Note to grabbers - it's easier if you first set up a Handango account with your device and PIN, and connect it to a Paypal account, *then* go back and click on the Free App Friday links. To get the free app you have to "check out" like you were buying, but the charge to your Paypal will be $0.00.

Wooo got me a free copy.

EDIT: watch out for the Handango setup/checkout, it will try and subscribe you to a bunch of spammy newsletters. I already had an account and the checkout process still added me to another list (I missed the checkbox on a page to undo it, they're checked by default) that I had to go and unsubscribe from just now. grrrr.

Thanks!!! I had a passing interest in this application, as I normally read the threads associated, but would've never, ever bought it.

We need a Free App Friday ongoing thread. It's no telling what else I may have missed by forgetting to go to the site every week.

I almost bought this thing a month ago but thought it was overpriced. Went with the built in BB password keeper instead. But for free, I think it's priced about right. Thanks for the tip.

I'd say that he just made a template and types entires in the field. I'm not sure if there is a character limit in the fields.

Yeah, that's what I'm currently using. I like KeePass a lot, and it syncs perfectly with the desktop version through Desktop Manager.

I grabbed DataVault during the "Free App Friday" promotion, but I'm not sure if I'm going to use it.

The upside to DataVault is that there are many different types of templates for the different types of passwords/cards/info you want to store. It appears to be a more varied and useful product.

The downside to DataVault is that the registration code is linked to your PIN. If you ever upgrade to another device, you'd need to buy the product again. So, even if you were able to grab it for free during "Free App Friday," it will only remain free as long as you own your current device.

The upside to KeePass is that the desktop and BB versions are open-source and will remain free indefinitely. Although there are some limitations in the software, I like knowing that I can always move the software to another device. For example, if my BB stops working next week, I'll get a replacement because my BB is still under warranty. Technically speaking, I'd have to purchase DataVault again (of course, they may be sympathetic to you and give you a free registration; but, technically, you would have to buy again), but KeePass would always be free.

Yeah, at the time of my question, I had just downloaded the program in case I needed it for future use. I hadn't actually done any fiddling around with it. I think I know how he did it now and there is a 10,000 character limit in the notes section according to Ascendo.

Thanks for being willing to help me, though.

Thanks also to stars. People were looking for a diary/journal software for the past two months or so. I don't think anyone would've thought of Data Vault.

I think I read in one of Ascendo's threads, that you would be able to move the application to another device. Either with their help or with Handango's. I think it was in the announcement of Data Vault 4. Check that one.

I'm even more glad I didn't pay for Datavault. Its nice to have a free option that will sync to a desktop.

Well, it's no longer free, but they do have it on sale for $22.46. Maybe that would help a little.

I can't help but wonder how many other applications have they put up that I would've wanted. I think they've been doing this for about two months.

Save yourself some hard earned $$$ - just sign up for a GMail account, then email the downloads to that account for safe keeping (as file attachments). That way if you ever need it again, there it is. 2gig (or 4gig now I think) is a LOT to store BB softwares in GMail, can't imagine you'd ever use it all...

Bookmark the Free App friday page and check it on Friday. You don't need to come to BBF for this solo purpose.

Or, set it up as a reminder in Google Calender to remind yourself to check Free App Friday page.

download security?

Why don't you put it in a USB drive or back it up?

Have you been going to Handango during this run? I wanted to know of some of the other applications they offered and how long it's been going for. I'm thinking it was about two months ago when I first saw their Free App Friday banner.

I don't recall it being every Friday, it may have been and I missed a few.

DataVault was probably the most price app I have seen free, some others were less interesting games, etc.

But it is a nice and gracious deal from Handango... two-thumbs-up!

Thanks. I could've sworn that I had read a thread about a game of some sort being given away on this board. It was a few weeks ago, I tried to go back and find it, but I couldn't. I just assumed that was the type of stuff that they'd be giving away on a regular basis and just put the whole thing out of my mind. Perhaps, they weren't getting enough traffic with the rinky dink games and decided that they'd have to step it up for it to make an impact.

I have been going to Handango during every Friday to check out what apps I could download for free. So far I visited Handango for 4 weeks, and I downloaded 3 apps.

Devone Code Wallet
Agendus Standard
and the latest apps from DataVault

I think Handango has free app on Friday for different platform for each week. I recalled the week before last week was a Win Mob App.
