This may turn out to be a dumb question but is there such a thing as an emulation of the PPC environment for PC? I'm paranoid about my X51v breaking down and losing stuff that I've built up in apps I've installed that don't have Windows versions or can't be sync'ed. Obviously my PIM is sync'ed with the PC but I use non-PC compatible software for other purposes and I'd like to be able to access data on the PC quickly if the X51v goes on the blink. This concern probably wouldn't have occurred to me had I not already had the problem on an X30 that simply went on the blink a while back and never woke up again. It took ages to reinstall everything on the new X51v and I had to struggle to get new codes for most of my apps first which was a real pain!!
