personal portal and Palm syncronization
I was building a personal site to weblog my engineering and personal stuff (based on Squishdot and Event Folder), and the thought occurred to me that it would be really neat if I could syncronize my Palm to this personal site. Using the Event Folder, I have a calendar, Squishdot provides the memos, I would need some other product to do the ToDos, and some other product could provided the contact management list. All that would be needed would be a way to sync between the Palm and the Zope site. Any ideas? (Heck, I could even see a company providing this as MyPalmPortal or something like that! Then I would not have to depend on a particular computer to sync my Palm with and I would have a better way of entering memos when I had access to a web browser. Any ideas how the sync would be done?

WorldPilot has the ability to do this, allegedly.
WorldPilot's Palm side of things was still broken last I checked (last week, IIRC) - it was complaining of login errors, though you could login happily through other means. Get the freshest version of the software you can as it might be fixed now.

Yes, this has been on my wish list for some time, but there's no way I'm going to get round to it right now... Take a look at pilot-link (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pilot-link) for interfaces to the mail, todo, etc software on your palm. This will only really deal with workstation -> palm syncs, though, so you probably want MAL, the open source networked application link thingum from avantgo: http://www.mobilelink.org don't know how it works or anything though :) seb ----- Original Message ----- From: <Brian.Burton@nlynx.com> To: <zope@zope.org> Sent: 25 September 2000 16:28 Subject: [Zope] personal portal and Palm syncronization
