The gadget is really good. I can't give it 10 as it would imply syncing is straight forward. That it is plug and play. That is not so. But once you follow the hacks syncing is almost perfect. (I will write about the hacks some other time) It can sync with KPilot and JPilot. But you have to do it like this: For KPilot (do not open the app yet), you first press SYNC on the Palm and then open the app KPilot straight afterwards. For JPilot you may open the app, and then you click sync on the Palm first and then sync on JPilot. otherwise you get errors on both. Once you get the hang of it - is no problem. The downside is that any program like Photos, etc are only available in Windows, so you can't use those desktop-sync software in Linux. If you are not terribly allergic to Windows - you do those like once in a while to upload essential photos including thumbnails for the address book. But the Palm's: Calendar, Address, Todo and Memo all will sync alright in Linux. KPilot syncing is really thorough, JPilot is really fast. I recommend the product - it gave me way more joy than frustration. Which can be pretty unusual with gadgets on Linux. Really love it.
