Yeah I saw where there was a encryption for the card and maybe I'm wrong about this but won't that slow down any data transfer.
I know this may sound silly considering my post but I spent the extra bucks and got a 16g class six card so I could get the top speed out of this device and if every time I write or read something to it and it has go though a encryption process, if it sows that down thats kinda defeating the purpose of that.
Next if someone gets access to my phone some how which I'm sure if they want to getting around the pins wouldn't be that hard to do, then once they do, they have access to this info.
Plus and again this may sound contradictory to my post but I really don't feel there is really that much of a need for a PIN to turn on the phone, that would mean I would have deal with that every time I turned on the phone when its really not needed.
Outside of just this one folder theres really no need for any added security as if the phone is ever lost or stolen I can just cancel it.
Then if there is a folder that is locked on it that they try to get to via a card reader, they would still need to program to do that so they still wouldn't have access to it.
Not that your suggestions aren't good ideas but finding just a program that can password protect one folder is really the best of all worlds for me.
