Card backup?

I'll be getting my new TT3 any day now.
My worst nightmare is a hard reset while I'm away from my PC.
When I had my Visor Deluxe it happened all the time and their $50 memory module saved my day with a simple backup/restore.
The Clie NR70's card hardware design was stupid and I lost the card. Nevertheless I've never had a hard reset for two years.
What's the best combo of software/hardware for backup/restore
of your entire TT3?
 
I use BackupBuddy VFS, and it works well. I have also tried BackupMan, and it seems OK too; but I did not buy is, as do feel a need for two parallel systems.
 
I use Backupbuddy VFS, and I couldn't count the number of times that it's saved my life. I really wouldn't want to be without it. I have set Backupbuddy VFS to do a backup to SD card at 2am each day.

There was an occasion when I was using navigation software and the Palm crashed and wouldn't take a soft reset so, as I do in these circumstances, I did a restore from the SD card. Amazingly the restored setup wouldn't boot properly, either, although the Palm had seemed to run normally both before and after the backup time, and I finished the day without navigation assistance from the Palm.

I'm only telling this because I now have MyWorkbench, and I've noticed that it also has backup-to-card functionality, and I've noticed that it can be set to keep the last 2, 3 up to 7 backups. I suppose that on that day, if I'd had several backups to try, one of them would have got me home!

I wonder whether anyone has tried the MyWorkbench backup?
