Dashwire Vs MS Myphone
 
Any opinions yet?

I am using both and so far I like the interface of Dashwire Web more, but prefer the phone side application of MyPhone. The startup with Dashwire is only a momentary inconvenience.... but it always seems I want to use the phone that the exact moment Dashwire is starting up!

I like the fact the MyPhone backs up documents, but I wish there was more user control into what documents and types are actually backed up.

I'm also using both right now, and I'm liking the fact that MyPhone backups more filetypes than Dashwire, including documents.

Myphone just needs more control selections & Dashwire needs to restore text to the handset and a few more features that I can't think of atm. :(

I prefer dashwire for its skype dashboard/text from pc abilities.

I would bet that in the coming weeks, MyPhone will get some updates that address these issues.

Like Spork, I prefer Dashwire for it's web interface, though the sync process can take a while

I was running both as well and the document backup was a huge plus for me tho most ppl are right i like the interface of Dashwire better. Yet Dashwire was always a bit slow and it got kinda buggy on my phone...I was always restarting it because of freeze ups. But as far as free ones go I like myphone a little better.

Myphone looks pretty cool. I like the idea of calendar backup and editing- something Dashwire didn't have when I tried it out.

I'm on the waiting list now. How long did you guys have to wait?

A week and a half. They have a twitter via MSMyPhone, and they give away codes every day.

I'm using dashwire and google sync for calendar. I tried the myphone and it was taking hours to backup my text messages and it would never finish before i had to do a soft reset and my calendar events got moved a couple days before on most things. I don't really need to have text messages back on phone but if i needed to it is easier with spb backup.

Right now for me the best combination has been dashwire for everything and googlesync for my calendar. Also dashwire keeps the correct size for the TF3D contact tab.

It took quite a while for MyPhone to upload my text messages too (i had 2500 of them and it took a few hours) but i'll never let it get that high again before i upload lol.

I used to be a big fan of dashwire, but my txt msg limit was reached with them (10,000) so i stopped using it.
