Re: About Palm V and OS 3.3

Pilot users,

What about those of us who sync to Sun workstations?
Are we hosed?
I am not keen on any upgrade that would wipe out my data.  
To me, that is not an upgrade, it's a new install.

 :Here is the good news. The applications' data is still around (in a PC setup),
 :and as soon as you load those applications (i.e. I use a 'redo' application
 :which allows the scheduling of 'to do' items), they get synchronized and
 :you get back in business.

 :>This part was unbelievable to me... the installer says something like,
 :>"this will be a 3 step process: backup your data, upgrade the OS, and
 :>restore your data"... when it was done I had a COMPLETELY BLANK pilot
 :>with OS3.3.. it didn't restore ANYTHING.. (good thing we have the Backup
