I would use the Hotsync method. Then carefully check the new machine against the old. Use FileZ to beam or Bluetooth anything over that didn't make of via the Hotsync backup. I recently used this method to upgrade from a T3 to a T|X, it should be even easier for you since both machines are the same model...

hello everyone,

I have asked the same question to Palm Support, but I am certain the
solution they give is not the right one (surprised?).

I have 2 1/2 year old LifeDrive that's beginning to show its age. I
know it is only a matter of time before it dies, or become so
incapacitated that I will have to replace it.

On the other hand, I was able to secure a spare one (from my boss, she
now uses a Treo) that has only been used for a year, infrequently.

I would like to clone my current machine to the spare one and start
using it. Palm support says to hotsync the old one, and synch the
"new" and the trick is complete. 

However, I think stuff like apps tht I added, and Documents-to-go
files will not be copied over to the new machine. Only the "Outlook"
data (To-do, Contact, Calendar) are copied

Short of opening up the two units and swapping the HDD, is there a way
to clone the old to the new unit?

Many thanks,

Maurice
