So far the crackberry is a winders only sync thing. When I went cell/PDA
I got a Treo 650 so the sync could happen.

Then Fedora went brain dead and distributed a really broken pre-alpha
version of the pilot-tools (that was marked DO NOT USE THIS CODE. IT
DOESN'T WORK). That took many special rebuilds to work around. The the
phone and I had to do a hard reset and resync my stuff. At that point, I
discovered that my sync cable was screwy.

So I use the wireless sync from that phone company with the guy and the
glasses and the huge crowd of people I am paying to follow him around
(Can   u he   m   ow? ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss     .          .)
