How do I backup my data?

Strip is automatically backed up by iTunes. There is some detailed information available from Apple about iPhone backup, but the summary is that both the software program and the encrypted database are backed up during each iPhone sync.

The only important thing to remember is that if you somehow lose data and need to restore your iPhone, you should disable automatic sync right before you plug it in to your desktop. We encourage you to have a look at our step-by-step instructions for the restore process.

As of this writing (Dec 22, 2009), heavy development is underway on companion software for Windows and Mac OS X to provide explicit backup and sync on demand. Updates on our development activities are posted to our blog.
