Sprite backup

Is any one else using this? I have been using this for a couple of weeks and it has really saved me a couple of times. I am not sure how spb's backup works but with sprite you will get everything back. I mean everything, text messages, call log, loaded programs, notes.... everything back the way it was the moment you made the backup file. If you hard reset and are away from your pc you can create a backup on your SD card it contains all that is needed to backup. You just double click the sprite file from file explorer and the file loads sprit back on the PPC then starts the back up. In just a couple of minuets you are back up and running in the same condition as the minute the file was created.

Best of all this program is on the CD that came with the 700wx so its FREE

I am totally new to the 700WX, but had a Treo600 for a long time prior.

The first 700WX I got had a problem with a key on it, so I exchanged it for a new one within the first 14 days. Sprite Backup worked like a champ to have my new phone back to where the old one was in minutes.

Sprite Backup was included on my installation CD that came in the 700WX box.

I just installed it yesterday. I normally don't use a backup program for my PPCs. With as much tinkering as I have done with my 700wx, I thought I would give it a try.

I have used this program with my 6700 and now with my 700WX and it works great on both systems.

I'm a user of SPB backup but I just tried using Sprite.

Looks nice. More comprehensive than SPB. I haven't tried a restore yet, so I'll keep a couple SPB backups until that fateful day.

I wish they would come out with a "backupman" type app for wm5 that would allow you to restore only certain files, one by one. That would be super

Sprite does have a selective restore. I'm not sure if it's file by file, but I noticed the option the other day when I restored after a hard reset...
