Hay Don,
That sounds like a real great idea. I regularly backup my cards, but I am sure that there are a lot of Book Port users who probably wouldn't even know how to backup their memory card.

Subject: [bookport] feature idea
: Hi All,
:
: I just heard about someone who lost a bookport on an airplane and I got this
: huge knot in my stomach just thinking about the prospect. It would be bad
: enough to have to replace the book port, but the thought of having to create
: two gigs of numerous text and audio files with all of their attending
: bookmarks would be a truly horrible prospect.
:
: It gave me the thought that perhaps a feature for the transfer software
: might be a backup card function. This function, if activated, would open a
: folder on the hard drive, and either compress or just plain copy the whole
: card to it, bookmarks and all. This could be an automatic feature which
: happens once a week or whenever whenever the bp is hooked up.
:
: Now I know the naysayer's will say hey if you want to backup the card, just
: copy everything to a folder; but human nature says that most people just
: will intend to do it but just plain won't because it's a bother and all
: that. Make it a feature which is easy and appeals to lazy people like me
: and I'll jump on it.
:
:
: The reason this feature might be doable is that it doesn't impinge upon the
: firmware at all; it's just another feature request for the transfer
: software.
:
: Don
