Many people will argue that this is not as good as a "backup to SD" solution that has been around for so long. Well those work as long as you have the SD card, which you wouldn't have it you lost your device with the card in it. Nor would the SD card help, if it lost all of the data like my 1GB SD card did once. It would be a better solution if it backed up and restored additional information - at least the preferences information. Additionally I need to be able to restore what I need, not just everything. Security is at the forefront of anyone's minds. Remember Paris Hilton's information getting stolen, not from the device itself, but from the carrier's servers. If someone hacked Palm's servers, they would have a lot of information about it's customers. This would be an even bigger concern if it backed up everything like BackupBuddy.net's Professional service did - as more sensitive data may be transmitted OTA. ]]>Apr 15th 2007 11:47PM
