I have 10 flash cards which I simply use one each day on a rotating
basis to do complete backups on my 2100 to. I copy ALL my data and ALL
my packages each night to a new flash card. This way if I loose or
break my 2100 all I have to do is pull out the next Newton, plug in the
last flash card and do a total restore from that flash card to the new
working hard-reset Newton. Is this sufficient to protect my packages and
my data as a totally "fail-safe" approach to backing up all my current
Newton day-to-day packages and data on my 2100?
