Re: [Bitpim-user] Wallpaper & ringtone indices

[Tom T. <to...@to...>]

Roger,
    IMHO, overwrite mode will suit me fine.  It will require that you either
ensure you are using current data or download fresh data from the phone each
time (if I understand your description well enough).  Either or both of
those scenarios are acceptable from my standpoint.  I don't think I would
want to start with an empty file and have it merge whatever changes I want
to make to the data that exists without me actually seeing what is there...
    Just my opinion.

    Thanks!

        Tom...
