I have two TXs and a Z but I have been saving the extra units for when the
active one "goes out".  I used to use the Z as a backup when the TX needed a
repair but it's been going all of these years without a repair so far.  I
purchased the extra TX when I heard that Palm was going to discontinue
production.

Subject: [pdbk] alternating multiple Palm devices for one user, best way ?

 

  

Just curious is anyone here has more than one device, and, 'rotates usage' ?

as I have more than one TX, I'm thinking of starting to 'alternate' which
device to use on say monthly basis (equalize wear and tear, backup, etc)

I'm trying to assess what the best way that won't bite me at unexpected
moment, in case someone here has some take on this, pls let me know

- sync 1st device, reset 2nd device, sync from PC/Desktop, accept userid

- NVBackup backup 1st device to SD, restore 2nd device from SD card

what other path ?
if anyone uses or used any such, please share tips and dos/don'ts

main use: DateBk, Hours, MyChequebook, Snapper, pFuel

I don't want to be able to use both 'simultaneously'

(the other day, my 'Hours' application 'malfunctioned', probably 1st time
ever that I've seen Hours 'play up', so I thought I should make better use
of hardware that I have....)
