@Snazzy: Hahahaha. The phone I brought home from the store was far from "fast", it's only Galaxo that's made it even half-way usable. I'm dumping this when the first Froyo devices come out or jumping ship to an iPhone unless there's a real breakthru in the next month with getting 2.X working on this.
Thanks for the replies, in a way I'd rather know it's impossible than that I was missing an obvious way of doing things. Just a pain to loose SMS messages and scores in games each time; how can I at least back them up and restore them? I'm sure that's possible even if I have to accept re-installing my apps. It would be nice to restore my folders (for the launcher) but I can live with that; well I can live with it all, but be nice to not have to loose too much.
