What kind of smartphone do you have? Since when does GnuPG exists for
phones? I would be really interested in a Symbian version, or I would
have to wait for Meego to become adult.

Ah, the good old CKT builds. :-)

I have a 3k ElGamal key (reasoning: 3k is supposed to be just a bit
stronger than 128 bits which makes my secret key not the weakest point
but also not longer than that, using 4k or even larger would make the
symetric algo the weaker point), is 3k not an option for RSA?
