Furbo.org brings word of the iPhone/iPod Touch Backup Extractor. What is it?
This application converts the iPhone / iPod Touch backups that are created by iTunes into readily usable Mac OS X files. It is designed to run on Mac OS X Leopard only.
Twitterrific creator Craig Hockenberry, among others, claim this tool is invaluable for debugging and decoding.
Freeware, but donations appreciated.

Read on to find out in this week’s Tip!
