Archived from groups: microsoft>public>pocketpc (more info?)

I've made the purchase and am in the process of replacing my iPAQ2210 with
an iPAQ2490.

However I notice that the 2490 comes with ActiveSync 4 and there doesn't
seem to be the facility to perform a backup of the 2490.

Previous versions of ActiveSync gave the opportunity to backup the iPAQ2210
and I'd really like to do a backup - anyone got some ideas?

thanks in advance.

I have a new hx2495 myself, and no, HP doesn't provide any backup
software. You are going to have to purchase your own. I know Sbp
Softwarehouse makes one (called Sbp Backup) but I don't know of any
other than that. You can download a trial of it, though.

BTW, I don't think ActiveSync backup is THAT bad. It may be a bit slow but
is reliable and it has standardized tools to do some desktop-side file
extraction, unlike Sprite. (See
