How to Speed Up iPhone and iPod Touch Sync?

Have you been getting annoyed by the insane amount of time your iPhone or iPod Touch takes to sync?

At most instances, it is the backup piece of the sync process that tends to take an inordinate amount of time. Also, if you had already synced once in the day and just want to sync some music, photos, etc it could be a major pain to wait for the whole sync process.

What if you could simply turn off/on the backup part with a single click?

BackOff from DigiDNA – the makers of the popular DiskAid iPhone file browser software does just that.
