Question Sprite Backup OR Sprite Backup "Premium"

Hello. I'm a newbie and I just received my Axim X30H and I am lovin' every moment..I spend a lot time playing Hot Death Uno (that is one addicting game!) Anyway, I love this forum and appreciate all the info everyone provides.

On that note most users recommend the Sprite Backup program. I checked Handango and saw the Sprite Backup for $19.95 and there was also a Sprite Backup "Premium" for $29.95.

Which is "better"? and why should I choose one over the other? Thank you so much for the advice.

1. do you already have software that does the job of those 2 added software in the premium edition and if you are happy with it.

2. get the basic and then buy the upgrade to the premium if you think that's necessary...

one rule I live by, If I don't know why I need something, then I probably do not need the said item...

The important bit is the Backup program. The Pocket Monitor and Space Detective programs that complete the Premium package are nice to have but not essential. As Mikop says get the backup program and if you find a use forthe others upgrade later.

I purcahsed the regular version and it is sufficient for most users. Check their website to see the differences.

Thank you all very much for your input. After going to the site and listening to all of you, I will go with the basic program :approve: and only upgrade if I need it. Again, thank you all for your valuable input.

Don't forget that only the premium has features for backing up to your pc.

Correct me if i'm wrong.

Automated backups and the ability to backup/restore individual files.

Cheers, Rich

Is it possible to restore from my PC without having the Sprite backup software installed on the axim (like after a hard reset) ??

Thanks !
