If for some reason I have to hard-reset, it takes a matter of 5 minutes to restore all my PIM and RAM files and less than an hour to reinstall all my apps.

I actually prefer reinstalling apps over restoring as it gives me the chance to start again with a clean registry. I keep a running list in Notes of the programs I need to install, in what order, and where to install them. Each hard reset for me is like Spring cleaning, I get to start out fresh again.
Well, in my case, I bought Pocket Backup Plus when I was going to Florida for two weeks and would be away from my computer. I was terrified that I would have to hard reset, and not be near a computer to reinstall anything.
As for reintalling over restoring, I had to reinstall everything once after a ROM upgrade, and it took me over five hours. :crooked:
