    I have discovered that as well through your site. Since I am an end
user with no programming experience at all I'll have to wait until
someone else gets it working. Right now I'm using the built in Nokia
backup utility to save my data which will have to work for now. I would
be willing to be a guinea pig if it's ever worked out and then writing a
step by step how to. It sounds like it's very close to being ready.

    I'll be eagerly waiting for any solutions you develop! For me the
Opensync method would be preferable at this point but I know a lot of
users prefer the SyncML option.
