There is also duplicity ported for N900.
It doesn't need root (sudo) permissions on the remote end.
However, ssh-support seem to be broken in duplicity, so I first backup to local repository and then rsync it to the PC.

Good point about the optified packages, I may have run into something like that myself, I'll have to check.

Might be better to use ext2 since it's non-journalling, the card should last longer.
