There are still some things I won't put in it myself (i.e. only on a piece of 
paper or on a flash drive in a safe), but I think the GPL-licensed KeePassX (vs 
the regular KeePass) + KeePassDroid + DropBox might cover you.

http://www.dropbox.com/

I have not used the Android one lately, but each time I open KeePassX under 
Linux (regularly) or under Windows (occasionally), I enter a password and pass 
it a key-file.  The key file path is pre-filled-in, so just type the master 
password.  If you don't have both, you can't get in there.

And if you need access to the list at the command-line, export it as text 
occasionally, encrypt it with gpg... (and shred the text file)

 What is your secret to remembering hundreds of unique passwords?  Or
 forgetting the old ones as they change?

 I use a password-keeper app called TkPasman (sadly no longer maintained.)

 It encrypts your password list using OpenSSL and a master password.  Make
 sure that's secure and that your password list is physically protected.

Thanks - but I probably use at least a dozen different devices in the
course of a day (win/mac/linux/android, at least) and am not very good

Ah, I see.  Being a curmudgeon who pines for the old days, I own no
Internet-capable mobile devices. :)  I actually enjoy being unreachable
sometimes.

TkPasman is probably cross-platform on Win/Mac/Linux, but most likely
not Android and for sure not IOS.  In this case, I think you're out of
luck.

Regards,

David.

I'm old enough to remember computing in the 'old days' as giant
bundles of point to point serial cables with mostly-incompatible
devices at each end, so I tend to enjoy the new toys that are both
wireless and connected to everything all the time.   And quick google
searches have replaced most of my memory - neither one goes back as
far as I'd like, though.
