I recently got a new Ax, and I didn't have a backup. Reinstalling software was a breeze. I just created the partnership with ActiveSynch, then went down the software listed in ActiveSynch's "Add/Remove Programs". One of my applications installed the original version, and I had to find the update file. Two of my applications asked for a key, which I had.

I don't know whether the Ax RAM gets fragmented like a disk drive does, so I don't know whether there is any advantage to re-installing over restoring. But I don't see the huge advantage to backups.
