Does anyone know of good solutions for encrypting data at rest on Macs (preferably the entire drive)? Unlike my last job, "throw the drive in a GSA Class 5 safe when you leave the room" is not an option for me at the moment.

Encrypted disk images have the same plusses and minuses as PGPdisk-- they work great as a place to put sensitive documents and data, but I also need to protect the browser & email caches, iChat logs (if they are turned on) and other things that live in the home directory. From a functional standpoint, FileVault home directories actually do quite well, and our security guys have approved it as an interim step, but I'm trying to identify some additional alternatives.
