well, based on changing phones and relogging in to my palm profile, here is what i found:

it saves your email and contacts settings as far as i can tell, and programs that you have already downloaded from the app store, but NOT messaging

it does not save homebrew apps that you have installed, or modifications like rooting the pre for tethering. it also does not save your pictures or music, so make sure to save them prior to doing this. ALso, launcher modifications were not saved - things like adding contacts to a launcher page

i am not sure about wallpapers or ringtones, i was using the default options on my phone at the time

also, here is a nice review of the palm profile backup:
