Actually the worse that can happen is that during the crash the Palm erases
totally its data memory.
So when you do overclocking experiments on your Palm you must keep this in mind
and make a backup of all the data on the Palm before you make it crash.
Normally you just have to do a HotSync in order to backup all the data.
What I do is a HotSync, then I make a backup of my C:\Palm directory (which
contains the backup data amongst other things) for more security.
After the data loss, a HotSync will bring all the data back. You might also need
to reinstall some programs, but it's just a question of minutes.
