I personally like mSecure by mSeven. It has the sleekest interface and is the easiest to use. It works alot like the iPhone's contact app so it's very intuitive. At least too me.

I actually use two, SplashID and 1Password. SplashID seems to be easier for general information like bank accounts but slow for tracking website log-ons and 1Password is real good at capturing website log-ons but slower to capture general information.

I use 1Password. It's actually better as a Mac password logon manager, but the iPhone version is improving. I used SplashId on my Palms. It was good, but I've never used the iPhone version.

I do not like the new interface. I had set it up in categories and types buy what i use. Now its alphabetical order and i have to search for what i want. Example everything about my house was under the "Home" category now i have to scroll down and find it. (I don't want to filter because I still want to beable to see the others...) Wish i could revert back.

I use 1Password, cause I use it extensively on my MBP. I also have eWallet (it was cheaper than SplashID) on my iPhone for the credit cards and various account info. I don't much care for SplashID though (I dislike the interface, and its super slow). 1Password i relly only use for when i have to access a website away from home and don't have my laptop on me, so I can recall the login. lol

I used both SplashID and eWallet in my Palm days, but haven't really seen the need to put them on my iPhone more permanently just yet. I don't generally need my CC and account information with me on-the-go to that degree, and I've got a fairly good memory for numbers.
I use 1Password on my iPhone as an extension of their great desktop app. Passwords are the sort of information I'm more likely to need on-hand, particularly in the case of some obscure web login that I only rarely use, and the 1Password Mac app is second-to-none for what it does, and the iPhone app works great just to keep a portable copy of the data.
