why can't you just sync your phone up with your PC?

I have a bluetooth adapter for the PC, but no phone-aware software. What would I need to go from Palm Desktop (with filtering, since I don't want it all) to a bluetooth phone?

The Mac, OTOH, came with phone aware synching software, which is why it happens there.

I'm going to be looking for syncing software when my new phone comes in, so I'll let you know what I find.

ita, you could try DataPilot. It seems to be able to sync to Palm Desktop.

Thanks, D. But for $59.95, I'm surprised it doesn't synch the calendars with Palm Desktop. Or use Bluetooth.

Hmm.

I was sure that iSync explicitly told me it couldn't sync with my Palm device. Yet, there is a conduit for iSync, and I'm testing it now.

I use iSync with my Treo which is pretty much just a palm device. It even works across Bluetooth with no problems.

The only remaining thing I need to resolve is to make the Palm iSync before the phone. It's pretty smooth, even if I did manage to delete all the phone book entries from the phone while I was experimenting.

For syncing with a Palm (Treo, in this case), I much prefer Missing Sync to Hotsync + iSync on a Mac. In Tiger, it has its own conduits for iCal and Address Book that sync things like categories (for both contacts and calendar), user pictures, IM address, and so forth - things that iSync misses. It can also use any other conduit (I've got Documents to Go on there, for instance), install software (on the internal memory or a card), sync with an iTunes playlist or iPhoto album, sync files with any folder on your hard drive (to a card), and many other neat things. Of course, if all you're doing is transferring the phone numbers from Palm->Phone, then there's no need for that, and you could stick with the free.

Firefox 1.5 has been officially released. [link]

I downloaded that for work and home -- it's fast. Totally worth having to pick new themes for (since neither of the ones I'd been using have been upgraded to work with the new version yet).
