RIM can give away the BIS (Blackberry Internet Service - used by a non-corporate person in most cases) keys because those servers are operated by the carriers. BESs (Blackberry Enterprise Servers) are owned/operated by a company and RIM does NOT ever have the keys to give away. So the corporate customers using a BES are safe from the governments that have been the keys, Joe Blow on the street is not.

1. Facebook connect. Remember that Facebook only knows what you tell it. You could always make an account with only required fields filled out, NEVER use it as intended (set all the security/privacy to the highest and don't every friend anyone, join any groups, or "like" anything), and just use that as your SSO solution. Or if you simply refuse to use Facebook at all: 2. Lastpass. Can't say enough about these guys. It is FREE and just works.
