Cellstik Backup Drives
It's pretty obvious that Cat from TechieDiva knows where I'm comin' from on this. I'd like to see a show of hands of all the people that have dropped cellphones in toilets. I personally once deep-sixed a brand new Treo 600. That was two years ago, and losing the numbers stored on my cell phone today would be comparable to putting a bullet through my laptop. I'd wind up in the fetal position on the floor of my creative compound.
To safeguard against this potentially crippling loss of data six one trick ponies have come into my life. These little gems backup all the data from a cell phone to a specialized thumb drive. It's a great little piece of dedicated data recovery hardware that’s dead easy to use. Simple push button operation takes data from the phone to keep it safe, and a second button puts the data back on the phone. There's a USB interface for taking the backups to your computer for a double measure of redundancy. Phones from Motorola, LG, and Samsung are supported, but there are individual backup drives for each type of phone so be sure to check the compatibility list before buying.

This is great news. I always wondered what would happen if I dropped my phone into the toilet. While we are on the subject of dropping cell phones... Until I purchased my first cell phone I was a highly coordinated person; I rarely dropped things. I have dropped my phone about 5 times in less than a year. That's just not like me! So, my theory: cell phones are designed to be difficult to hold so that we drop them, break them, and are forced to buy more of them. I mean, even little digital cameras have 'thumb notches' so you don't drop them.
