Have you considered using your main machine as an IMAP server?  The EeePC has 
no problem accessing your machine in this way.  Reading mail from the server 
is fairly easy to set up, and you can choose between plain IMAP. which leaves 
everything on the server (you'll need to set up your EeePC kontact to save 
sent-mail and Trash on the server), or dIMAP, which copies everything onto 
the client box, leaving the originals on the server.  Again, mail only is 
easy.  Getting the calendar and addressbook that way is more difficult.  
Several of us are working on it at the moment, but temporarily I am copying 
the calendar and addressbook over if I want to use them away from home.
