1Passwd actually uses a keychain to store its information. However, keychains by themselves don't actually do anything for you. Maybe the original poster really meant to ask what was the difference between 1Passwd and Apple's auto-fill in Safari. The short answer is a lot. In addition to handling all the sites that Safari's auto-fill won't handle (such as most financial sites), it allows multiple identities, works in Firefox, Camino, and other browsers. I strongly encourage you to go the developer's site and check this one out. It's a gem!
