We're trying to evaluate a security product called "Protect!" from Pointsec 
Mobile Technologies Inc. Their public information is scant, at best; a 
white paper about their encryption says enough good words to be not 
obviously snake oil, but not enough to actually feel confident about the 
product either.

Does anyone have any experience with the product, or know more about its 
actual security? Please reply to me, and I'll summarise afterward.

thanks,
Greg.
