New major features:

• online SW update checking
• sensor sharing among multiple processes
• support for Mac OS 10.6.x (aka Snow Leopard)
• guest user support (since Mac OS 10.5.x)

Limitations:

• English only (resources of other languages are stripped out)
• Application help and user guide are slightly outdated.
• When changing the login policy (options "Swipe OR password", "Swipe only" or "Swipe AND password), the setting is not refreshed immediately in case there is already some authentication running at the same moment.
• The biometry is still active on background even if screensaver is running.
• A non-admin user has access to the Global settings in the administrative application. However, any changes performed by such a user have no effect.
• Some buttons on the login window may be in incorrect state after wake-up from computer sleep. (E.g. they may be displayed disabled when they should be active.)

類似ソリューションとしてはネットマークスの「PUPPY Suite for Mac OS X」がありますね。
