This module provides a second form of backup for users who synchronize their Visor handhelds to a PC or a Mac. For users who don't sync to a PC or Mac, this module is a must-have to keep your data safe.
The module could not be easier to use - one click backup and restore.
I was surprised though that backup and restore is "all or nothing" - you can't select what to backup or restore. That means it's really only useful in the case of complete system failure when you have to revert to a previous state.
Sync'ing with multiple computers or the web to back up your important data is fine-- when you're next to a computer to perform the sync.
But if your batteries suddenly die and and you have to completely restore, Murphy's Law will have it that you're not next to your computer when that happens.
The Backup Module reduces that possibility by neatly sitting in the Visor's Springboard slot. The 1-button backup and restore makes it easy to backup and restore. It is a great complement to your normal backup routines with HotSync'ing.
