You are correct, not "within" bitpim, but you can do this with bitpim, it just requires a little know-how. On windows bitpim creates a directory called "bitpim" under "my documents" If you rename this to something like "bitpim_phone_XYZ_on_23rd_October_2006" (while bitpim is not running) you have effectively created a backup not just of your phonebook but of everything on the phone. To restore, just rename it back to bitpim.
