I'm not sure. My Clie came with a program called "backup" which makes  
an archive of everything on the memory stick.

When I had a Handspring with a memory card, I used BackupBuddy to  
handle the backups. Looks like it's still available.

For what it's worth, having a backup of your PDA on a memory card is  
a wonderful thing. If my battery dies and I lose information (not  
sure if that's still a problem with the Treo) or if a bad sync blows  
away my contacts, I can quickly recover, even on the road. So buying  
BackupBuddy may have value above and beyond this migration.
