I noticed the mention of eWallet for iPhone. Any other possibilities to take a look at? Obviously, you need encryption.
The thing is always 2 feet or less away from me, so it sure would be convenient.
My 3000th post!

That's what I do.
Just saw a guy at the AC in FRA that had his in a plastic sleeve in his laptop bag. The sleeve looked like it held maybe 12-15 cards.
I liked the look of it becuse mine always work their way into the nooks and crannys of my bag. Gotta find me one of those.

My ewallet is very old, over 60 years, but I retain nearly all number numbers in my memory. That works, Sadly I don't remember my wedding anniversary, but Mrs. jb seems not to care because I always remember her birthday.
Seriously I keep all my numbers in SplashID together with login data and credit cards. That has been easy and useful since ancient PalmPilot days. It does not have the slick images and bar codes of the iphone apps though. I have never needed those...

CardStar is the program I use on my Iphone (I know they have an app for droid but not sure about the blackberry) and I think it's great for a free app. If you put your delta SM number in the skyclub is able to just scan the delta SM from the app for entrance, so I am assuming it works for other airlines as well.

I've only got elite status with AA, and the card stays in my wallet to use at the self-service checkin machines and on the rare occasions I've needed it in-transit (free nuts on AE although usually you don't need to flash the card or BP, once or twice where CX/JL has not recognized the OW Sapphire on the BP when I tried to board for coach on the J line)
For the hotel programs, I just have a bunch of text files in a "reference" folder on my laptop and the SD card on my phone. Ditto for how I keep track of phone #s I don't use enough to keep on my phone's contact list.
