I need to recover my data from my X3!!!

My Axim X3 is dying a quick death. The connection prongs have broken off. I cannot sync, and I have not been able to recharge the battery. My last sync was a month ago. I have done a data backup from my X3 to my SD card. I am now trying to get that info onto my computer. My friend gave me an X5 he is no longer using. I was hoping to back up my info onto the X5, then sync with my computer. But the X5 does not recognize the X3 Backup file. Dell suggested installing the X5 PPC 2003 upgrade. Where can I find that, or is there another solution someone can think of?

Even if you upgrade the X5 to 2003 your X3 still won't be able to read the backup file. Do you have wifi or BT? Have you tried wireless sync?

How much/what kind of data are you trying to save?

EDIT: This is a longshot, but if you happen to use Sbp Backup, it has a utility to extract files to desktop:
