VfsBackup 1.1 (for Palm OS)
VfsBackup 1.1 (for Palm OS)
FINALLY! A FREE card-backup solution. VfsBackup is a newly released palm SD card backup solution for VFS enabled PalmOS devices, e.g. Handhelds with SDRAM or similar removable RAM extensions, like Treo 600/650. The software works very well on the Treo (see compatibility-tested models), and is a free solution. One minor known bug: using 5-way pad on Record Log screen causes soft reset -- tapping "OK" with stylus will not reset.
Big thanks to 100thMonkey, MTDN Forum Moderator, for this find.

FireSQer: Didn't work well on my 650. Many error messages both on backup and restore. Used NVBackup and that freeware solution worked flawlessly.
Frosty555: An excellent piece of software. Made a perfect backup of my Treo 600. Restoring it gives some messages on some databases, something about how it couldn't delete them, but okay-ing through all of it, it appears to not be an issue.The soft-reset after backup bug has been in his description. USE THE STYLUS TO PUSH OKAY, not the 5-way navigational pad. There. Bug gone.Does anyone know how to make the thing keep more than one backup? I sorta wish I could make regular backups and store them all on the SD card.
sasagnes: HIGHLY recommended software! This has saved me SO many times when I've been away from my PC and needed to restore. Better (less errors) than the other free solutions I've tried.
fisfisbg22: wont backup more than 200 files , plus it soft reset right after backup :( well for free its good so far
sandmstan: my treo600 died 3 times this week. Vfs saved me!! I also tried the other solution and it failed. this is a must andit works grest - thanks
j0rene: this keeps crashing after about 100 files then crashes on my treo650 as well as my friend's TungstunE.
evansc22: After a few hundred files, my Treo 650 soft reset. After the reset, I went back into the program which soft reset the unit again. On the third attempt it got to 230/595 files and reset the device. I only wish it would correctly. I'll keep messing with it and see if I can identify the 'bad' file.
ninodelsol: Essential. Simple, and even more importantly--effective! Only things missing is scheduled backups, but what more can you ask for when it's free?! Great. Thanks to the developer.
kgit: Works great on my treo 600! Thank you.
godschoice: Does work with my Treo 650. It complains about a pacer file and then only gets to about 245 of 523 files before it displays a log. Resets at that point.
