You *might* be looking for something that you don't really need as much
as you think you do. The Newt's much happier being independant than the
Palm devices are. I've been using mine for a long time now only touching
the PC with it for backups and package loading, and now even the package
loading is done independantly since figuring out how to use Apache as a
package loader.
The one place I'd like to see a little synching happening is with Lotus
Notes R5 (which Cadenza reports failing NotesInit in its logs for). But
even that's a one-way synch: from Notes to the Newt, and I may be able
to get away with an export from Notes and some magic in a text editor.
