[Ref 1 Ref 2] Something was pointed out to me since I posted this morning on the subject that I think is deeply ironic. Apparently, the SynCE framework works incredibly well, allowing Windows Mobile smart phones to be synchronised with Evolution – and other desktop applications. So, if running Windows isn’t a problem for you, …

The “best” smartphone for Linux users
[Ref] I set the challenge: What is the best smart phone for Linux users? and annoyingly, the answer seems to be: NONE To sum up more fully.

Summer of Code 2009 – please do this one!
I didn’t propose this project so I have no compunction about pleading for someone to apply to pursue it: Sync with Mobile Devices.
