  2. How many of you actually back up your smartphone? Why or why not, and what do you use? [posted by Jill Duffy, software analyst at PCMag]

      • Ross Payne Sync with iTunes, it backs up the iPhone. I am just not sure that it actually backs up everything. Have never had to do a restore.
      • PC Magazine Ross Payne Nice point. It is confusing what gets backed up. You'll be happy to know that iTunes is pretty thorough. But always remember the number 1 rule of backing up: REDUNDANCY! Make more than 1 back up... at least for the data you really care about.

      • Bob Levin PC Magazine: Firefox deletes its users comments out of the thread, which a craven trait and Firefox has destroyed its users ability to watch online video after the latest update. Firefox is not offering any solutions so as a journalist I've just notified all of the PC Magazines. Have you guys found a solution?

        i just want to say that Alex Colon is an idiot. He is either ignorant or deliberately misleading Droid Razr Owners or he's a little of both. Doesn't he know that if you haven't received the ICS update that you can't just go to your settings... and check for updates and, magically, it'll appear? His article says that's all you have to do,...right now, to get the update, which is utterly ridiculous. He should have said that the prompt from Verizon will be folllowing the actual arrival of the update, so it couldn't hurt to check your system update link periodically. However, if you haven't received the update yet, it will only say "Your system is up to date". I will never take anything Mr. Colon has to say seriously again.See More
