Answer 1

Hotsync is the standard way to restore your data. Some third party applications and preferences may not be restored unless you use a separate backup program. I would recommend using a backup program in addition to regular hotsyncs in the future. You can backup to a memory card as well so you can restore if you are away from your PC. Check out applications like BackupBuddyVFS or BackupMan.

Answer 2

If you have the original information on your computer, you can just hotsync your pda to you computer and it will copy the information back on to the PDA.  If you don't have the original information stored on computer, you will have to manually input all the information again.
