Pocket PC Backup Alternative & New Today Screen Battery + Monitor

Hey all, in light of all the backing up and restoring going on lately in response to the ROM update heres something new...

I just came across this Pocket PC Backup alternative, called Pocket Backup Plus, it seems great so far, it lets you create a full backup or PIM backup to either CF or SD or Built-In or Desktop. This is for people that don't trust ActiveSync or want more options I assume. This also lets you create a backup in the form of an executable (.exe) or a backup file (.pfb) It also does the backup pretty dman quickly. (To my CF anyway) with options to compress and or encrypt the data whilst backing up. ;)

This also comes with a few cool today screen plugins very similar to Battery Monitor 2003 (which I also have but may be replacing now) called PocketMon, it has a great battery and CPU monitor and other things as you'll see in my screenshot, it lets you also display these icons in Large, Medium or Small in percentage or MB left and remaining, etc. etc. The lat feature is Space Detective its like Battery Meters display of how much room each memory unit has left, then a way to see which files are the biggest, which take up the most memory, etc. etc.

I havent fully tested the battery monitors accuracy however it appears to be good so far, others may want to try this out as well. I have disabled the desktop client for now, I kind of like the idea of having a full backup on my CF thats relitivly small.

Here is my screenshot with the small icons and the text with how many days since my last backup (pretty useful reminder)



Here is a pic from their website that shows more options and things that it has:

Well it has a few different parts to it, but not much at all, I'd say 2mb at the most for all it.

Most of its on my SD card.
