Your 6700 probably came with Outlook 2002 (I think that's the version) on a CD-ROM. You can install that plus ActiveSync (on the CD also, or available for download I think) and synchronize your device with your PC. This solution is free because the required software comes with the phone.

Separately, you can back up your 6700 with pay software like SPB Backup or Sprite Backup. There may be others.

Another option is to use a hosted exchange account, which stores all of your email, contacts, calendar, and tasks on a central server, and you can sync to your desktop and your device automatically. This is the most expensive option, though I wouldn't really rely on it as a "backup" system (I always run my own backups because hosted exchange could fail and also only stores the aforementioned items and no programs, settings, etc.). It's a great way to use the 6700 esp. if you're a working professional.

If your PPC won't boot I'm not sure if there's anything you can do at this point to save your information. Maybe someone else can chime in. I don't believe the PPC has a "safe mode" built in to boot up in an emergency.
