Considering that Palm m125's are selling for less than $40 on ebay, I am skeptical that getting it repaired would be a cost effective solution. Even if the repair would be a simple matter of resoldering or replacing a capacitor, I have difficulty imagining someone would attempt it for less than $20. Ahh, the benefits and risks of planned obsolescence. Some of the aforementioned backup programs are $20 (I use BackupBuddyVFS, myself). There also exist Free software programs which approximate much of the functionality (simple backup/restore). e.g. Red Feline Backup: http://www.redfelineninja.dsl.pipex.com/software/rfbackup.html I'd suggest trying the free programs and seeing if they work well enough. If not, it's probably more worth your $ to replace the whole palm. -alan -- Alan Hoyle - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.alanhoyle.com/ "I don't want the world, I just want your half." -TMBG Get Horizontal, Play Ultimate. _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
