this. I use Dropbox with Keepass and Truecrypt. You can get these apps anytime from the web, put on USB keychain, or just remember Dropbox and run Keepass and Truecrypt from there. Just make sure to have a very long/secure Dropbox password, as that becomes the weakest link.

There's also Dropbox and Keepass for Android.

I use Keepass, but thought it took care of encryption for me. Is there a compelling reason to use additional encryption...?

The extra encryption is mostly for keys that I use with the passwords on Keepass.
