I have been using a trial version of this program on my iPAQ 5455 and have been backing up to both an SD card and my PC. I am impressed with the speed of the backup to the SD card--less than 5 minutes. Backing up to a PC takes a lot longer--about a half hour.

Jason, in his initial post, mentioned that the backup files created by the program are self-executing. I found that not to be the case. I had to do a hard reset yesterday and tried to restore my system from the SD card. Instead of restoring my system, I got a message saying that the file was corrupted. As a result, I had to create a new ActiveStink profile, download the program and install it onto my iPAQ and then restore my system from the SD card. This really messed up ActiveStink, as the profiles were different, but I eventually got it corrected after about two hours of work. I would be interested to know what I did wrong that the restore file did not self-execute. :?
