Not easily, much better to save your favourites in your own POI group which
will be saved in the map folder and can then be easily backed up, copied,
shared etc. You also don't have the 20 item limit that favourites has.

The favourites is intended as a scratchpad. For long term use a POI group
is the answer.

Not sure about doing within TT, but I back up my PDA with Sprite Backup
(http://www.spritesoftware.com/en/personal/products/windows_mobile/pocket_pc
.htm).
It may be overkill for what you want, but it's saved my ass more than once.

I guess it's a little overkill. But I'm using Sprite Backup already. I
would've been cool just to copy the favorites manually.

Thankz though.
