Motorola Milestone - Questions/Problems

[fekish]

Hi,

This is my first Android based phone and I have some important questions (based on my personal knowledge of course):

1. Is there a PC program out there that would do the work of PC Suite for Nokia phones? i.e. backup phone through wire, update phone through wire, connect phone to computer and reply to sms

3. at least pandahome & ahome

6. it should be ok to replace (or use instead of, as the default apps aren't actually going anywhere) the default apps without any impact on the overall performance (in more than one sense) of the phone, but not all apps are written that well - ie. plenty of apps can drain your battery dry very quickly due to bad programming
