Not sure if this is what you are looking for but Password Keeper has a random password generator. Just open it up, hit menu and select New and then hit menu key again and select Random Password.

I know this doesn't help too much, but I generate them out of my head. I have 4 rules:

1) it must be secure (8char min, symbols, etc.)
2) it must be able to be typed with one hand while holding coffee in the other
3) it must be acceptable to type on a QWERTY handheld
4) do not use o/0 or l/1/i anywhere

Your brain can be surprisingly secure if you let it - "mj3g.s6\;" took three seconds to think of and meets all 4 rules.

that's it ! I looked under password keeper originally, but I've never hit the menu key twice in any app so that's a learning experience

That's great! Especially #2. Cheers!
