How to back up a BlackBerry
The BlackBerry Desktop software package, available for download from the BlackBerry website, can be used to backup and restore a BlackBerry over a USB connection. However, several other options are available from BlackBerry App World.
The imaginatively titled Backup (£6.99) is able to backup the BlackBerry’s Address Book, Calendar, Task list and Memo list over-the-air, sending a backup file to a pre-defined email address.
Backup can even do this automatically, working in the background rather than requiring active user input.
txtForward (£6.99) sends copies of every sent SMS message to a pre-defined email address, effectively acting as a real-time backup of a user’s communication. We wouldn’t recommend linking it to a regular email account, but as it’s compatible with most of the popular free email services, there’s no reason not to setup a dedicated email address for this app.

Amazon Kindle Touch review
Rating: 
The Touchscreen edition of the popular e-reader is heavier and pricier than the original, and is only worth a purchase if audio or 3G is a priority.
