With WM5 I have left OS backups behind. I had a iPaq 4155 prior to my X51V and did do OS backups all of the time because of the RAM vs ROM issue. I also had many additional applications I loaded that were designed for a specific function (list maker, data base, financial tracking, etc). Upon obtaining my X51V I decided to make my PDA life simple. I moved all of my non-pda related data into a excel or word file format. This took a bit of effort and emagination to accomplish and I did loose some functionallity. This loss was however was overcome by my ability to not have to do OS backups. Today I make a copy of 'My Documents' from my unit to my SD card, sync my PIM data to my PC. I do not face issues with applications that may or may not work with my unique units set up. When a ROM change has been required (this has taken place twice because of a Dell upgrade) the reload is painless and takes me less than a half hour. For me simplicy, ROM A06 and the 'Fake Server Trick' has made my unit stable with zero issues. I have not been forced to to a soft or hard reset a single time in the last 6 months.
