Does a good freeware back up program exist out there? It's been hard to find one out there...

Has the manufacturer included a basic one in your Pocket PC?

Oh yea, it has... but it only backs up what is on the PDA and not the memory card. I wanted to back up what is on the memory card too, since recently there was an incident where I lost everything on the memory card. I got two cards now, so I can take advantage of it.

Well, you can always try Spb Clone. (http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/clone/?en) It's not a direct backup program as such, but it's a cloning program which does as good a job as any.

Edit: It used to be free for personal use (so ignore the US$299 cost). However, I'm not sure if that's still the case. Give it a go and see if you'll need to pay for it.

umm.. I don't think it is free anymore. The device restored with demo version occasionally pops up a window showing it's a demo (very annoy and slows down the PDA).

That's true.
