Sync a PDA


I have a Windows Mobile 5 based PDA. Is ther any way to sync this up with Linux. I have read that compatability only goes as far as WM2003. What is a good program to use?

Cheers

Multysync will do the job, but it can get a little cumbersome. I gave up on mine and just transfer files back and forth via SD card.

I tried multisync before and id doesn't appear to be compatable with WM5. I heard of one called something like CEsync. Is that any good?

Funambol Sync Windows Mobile device

Look at this: http://www.tipsfor.us/2008/04/15/syn.../#comment-2683

I have almost (99%) been using this solution for a while now but instead of using Funambol servers I use the free Scheduleworld Funambol server (scheduleworld.com).

I installed the same Funambol plugin on my phone and I sync with the Scheduleworld server my contacts, calendar and todo’s. After that I open up Thunderbird and I sync from the server using the SyncSW (Scheduleworld) Thunderbird addon and I have the same on my PC and my phone. I also export my contacts in CSV from Thunderbird and I import them in my GMail account online.
