           Summary: Syncing between Palm (Treo 650) causes datebook
                    corruption and breaks the Palm Desktop application in
                    Windows.

Every time I sync with kontact (trough kpilot) I need the dbscan program ( http://www.pimlicosoftware.com/utilities.htm) on my Palm to restore my datebook. If I don't do so my Palm will reset when I am scrolling trough my agenda.

Furthermore when I sync with kontact in Linux, Palm Desktop crashes on startup in Windows (I know this is seen as a feature, but maybe it's better to fix this :D). Anyhow I observed this behavior countless times on different occasions even with a freshly formatted Palm.
