"Backing Up" after sync stalls

Recently I have had trouble at the end of my iPhone Sync with the "Backing up KMW's iPhone. It starts the backup (about 1/3 of the line fills in" then it just stops.
Any ideas on why or how I can correct it?
iPhone is 3G, latest software,

Well - I took the plunge (again) and unsynched all my apps in iTunes and guess what - my back-up time went from 8+ hours (with no successful back up at the end of that time frame) to only about 2 minutes.
From why I can tell this is the only way to resolve the issues for people that have extremely long synch times.
I have a feeling that there is one or two applications that causes this issue - it has happened twice to me now. I was finally able to get a successful synch completed in preparation for my new iphone this friday.
I did loose some data in my applications - but I really had no choice. If you are one of the people suffering from a ridicuously long synch time - you problaby need to uncheck the 'synch all applications' check box in itunes and start fresh.
