While I was away on vacation, one of my all time favorite and must have applications was updated – eWallet. The latest version is now 6.1 and is a free update for people with version 6.0. If you’re running the older version 5, then there is a small upgrade fee. I’ve been running a private beta version for a good couple weeks and it’s been solid and bug free for me.
So what’s new? Well, there’s a number of enhancements in this point release. A more exhaustive list can be found over here – although, I’m pretty sure that’s not the complete list. Anyway, the cool new features that I care about are the improved performance on a Smartphone device. It’s now worlds easier to navigate and edit fields from your non-touch screen Windows Mobile device. Ilium has also added the ability to customize the fields in your card – so you can have multiple hidden values now.
And if none of the improvements here seem like enough reason for you to upgrade, that’s cool. Ilium is working on 6.2 and maybe that one will have the features you’ve been looking for. 
Speaking of features, I would love to see a seamless over-the-air file sync for my eWallet file. I realize this doesn’t have to be done by Ilium, but it’s a killer feature that I would love to see. Besides that, I think it would be awesome to have a Windows Sidebar gadget that lets me quickly open a wallet. What kind of features would you guys like to see added to your eWallet?
They’re up to version 6.1! oops. I’m still on version 5.0. Oh well,… it still works great.
