Yeah, I think you're right...thanks.

I did install pimbackup and brought a backup file back to my PC to check it out. If necessary, I can massage the data I got from backupassistant, put it back into the .pib file, copy it back to the device, and restore that file. But that will be a long arduous task...VZ is the best option for now...

thanks again.
