the poor status of this sync stuff as amazed me as well. Could it be that all Linux users have switched to Windows Mobile and Outlook ? or maybe back to paper agendas ? On my side, I still find the Palm much better than any of these Windows devices. They eat battery in less than one day, and are completely closed. When you find bugs (eg SSL certs handling), you get no patch, only a "update-to-latest-os-version" recommendation, which means you have to buy new hardware. I have started to use my Palm as reference, and use Perl scripts to "push" infos to other devices (Evolution, my home ISDN phone, etc). It would be nice to get sync with evo, but I think nobody will do it anymore. I see a possible future with KDE/kontact and the new project they have started. But it will take another year to get code....
