I recently abandoned Korganizer and Kaddressbook due to lack of sync
with mobile phones. I am still interested, though, and would gladly
test and triage what I can. My KDEPIM is no longer a critical
component for me, so I can test and break at will!

I currently have a Nokia N86, which is a Symbian phone that is listed
by Funambol as supporting SyncML. Please clarify: is your intention is
to have this device sync calendar and contacts with KDEPIM? If so,
I'll be helping!

Thanks.
