Sprite on WM6
I haven't heard any horror stories yet about Sprite Backup not working on Windows Mobile 6. I was able to install it successfully and also create a backup file. I have NOT tried restoring it. So don't know if it works all the way. :?
Wondering if someone has tried the restore on WM6?
I am preparing for my vacation trip and don't want to end up with a phone I cannot recover.

I wouldn't count on it working. It would be nice if it did, but.... It is a new OS and things change.

I wish I had tried the restore. Now I don't have time to test it and recover my phone in case of a hiccup. |

Is there ever a good time to wipe your phone and test a restore? If it doesn't work you're out a lot of time and effort. :?
I would load the installer for all your needed applications on a storage card and take them along for the trip. If need be, you can do a rebuild. It's better than nothing.

I just thought of my survival strategy. The most important thing for me is the Contacts while I am on the road. Even if I reset my device, all I need is Internet access (thru ActiveSync or GPRS) and I can then do an Exchange Server sync. Thank God for the Exchange Server, the ultimate in backup! ;-)

Nice! I really should setup Exchange some day. I just need some free time - anyone selling any free time?
