Hello again Hackers and Geeks,

did anybody here bears in mind that sync of PIM data between a mobile 
and a desktop computer should not require a study in informatics?

As mentioned before, my vision is something like the PC-Suite from 
Nokia. Install it on your preferred Linux Distro, plug in the cable and 
sync your data. We are far away from that.

I use KDE for 10 years now, since the early early days of 1.x. And all 
that time there was no MS on my own computers. But the lack of a 
useable sync between mobiles and my PC sometimes disposes me to give up 
Linux, install Outlook and my sync problems are solved. This is very 
very annoying.

What i still can not imagine is why this problem was never really 
solved. Sure, I know the technical difficulties of synchronisation. 
Sadly i choose a career as administrator, not as developer.


What about a fund for the acceleration of the development of a working 
(local/USB) sync solution? The first 100 $ will come from my banking 
account.
