Well, people should back up their computers, no?

How does that argument differ from buying from Amazon MP3, for instance?

But this is off topic I suppose. And hey, one of Windows Mobile's strong points these days is the way user data is relatively safe on the device, not residing in RAM as it did prior to WM5.0.

That's true for nearly every Smartphone on the market today.

If an iPhone could offer that sort of peace of mind maybe I'd take it a little more seriously.

Well, I've gone through three iPhones (deliberately, as in upgrades), and I'm using the
exact same OS image I was using with my first iPhone. I've never, ever had to reinstall, including after OS upgrades. I just plugged in my new iPhone and it restored every last setting, including every app, app data, etc. My iPhone environment has migrated seamlessly every single time. It's uncanny how smooth it has been -- I almost feel like I should be reinstalling it because I'm so accustomed to it from every single other platform I've owned. So, when it comes to data integrity, Windows Mobile is definitely not the only platform with its advantages.
