Dear Daniel,
I also think that the best way of figuring out the problem of P1i is sniffing.
I have a separate Windows box in my home with vendor software of P1i installed on it so I don't have to install any extra kernel module for my linux.
So, I got the SonoopyPro-0.22 and ran it in Windows when my phone connected to a USB port. After running, it showed a list of USB devices but none of them was relevant to my mobile. Should I do any extra work? Is it right way for sniffing?

By the way, the important stuff for me is just backing up my phone data. The way (Blutooth or USB) or Syncing two devices aren't important. If for example contacts information is stored in a file on mobile so that I can save this file in my PC and after any data losing, copying the file in the first place restores contacts information, please let me know.

Cheers,
Habib
