Yes you should be able to. I say should because I haven't tried it due to the machine on which I backed up my rom has given up the ghost! Also some of us had problems with language settings - backups were made as english (uk) but before you flash the rom it had to be change to english (us). Therefore I don't think it would re-install the back up even if my machine wasn't dead.

Anyhow - this may not apply in your situation if your settings are US anyway!

yeah, i'm a us citizen :)

Yes you can, IF you backed up your 2002 ROM before the upgrade. It's a checkbox in the upgrade screen.

has anyone tried this?

Yes, it's possible I did it last night so I could switch from a German ROM to the English one. All you have to do is use the Backup Rom tool, then when you want to go back, use Restore Rom, it worked like a charm to go from 2003 to 2002.

Yes it is possible to restore back to 2002 as long as you have made a backup when upgrading to 2003.
The restoe function works fine as i have tried it.

Where does it back up to? Is it to the internal memory (thereby taking up valuable space) or will it back up to the CF or SD?

I am pretty sure that it is saved on your PC
