KeychainItemWrapper ARCified. Added the ability to manage a dictionary in place of just a string - the #define PASSWORD_USES_DATA in the .m file switches the mode.

Insomnia for iPhone
Insomnia is an iPhone native application that, when enabled, will prevent the iPhone from sleeping, thus overriding its default behaviour. This allows background applications to continue to run and WiFi to work long after the screen has been switched off.
(The iPhone's default behaviour is to sleep 30 seconds after the screen has gone off, when not docked and charging that is).
Uses
Insomnia is useful if you are running a logging application that you would want to keep working while your phone is locked and the display is off.
If you are using an IM or IRC client that you wish to stay connected to receive messages while the screen is off.
