RE: Anyone tried this?
BackupMan has worked flawlessly for creating backups to my SD card and for restoring from my SD card. Since Blue Nomad gave me BackupBuddyVFS, I did use it for a short time. It also is for backing up to your memory card. But I had a restore failure with it, so I prefer BackupMan. YMMV. Since I travel often and am away from my PC, I really need a backup system to the memory card.
However, this program, BackupBuddy, works with a different concept. It creates backups on your PC, and has added functionality (for example the ZoomBack function). So it is a different kind of backup system. Comparing BackupBuddy and BackupMan is a little like comparing apples and oranges. Comparing BackupBuddyVFS and BackupMan is a much more similar comparison.
I'm still waiting for the mythical "color HandEra."

I don't take chances with my data. BackupMan seems to be the best backup app around and and for YEARS has flawlessly restored all of my devices every time I've needed it. Why Palm or PalmSource hasn't licensed/bought out BackupMan is truly hard to comprehend.
My guess is that Palm's content into thinking Hotsyncing is enough (like many of their other things that really aren't). After all, if palm PDAs were more travel friendly, we would've had user replaceable, rechargeable batteries long ago

Anyone tried this?
Another backup program I tried reported that it was working fine and that daily backups had been done for a week. When I had to hard reset and tried to restore all the backup files were blank (but big). That sucked...
