KO/Pi can sync calendar/todo data with new Sharp Rom DTM model PIM applications, found on Zaurus 7x0/860 and Sharp Rom 3.1 (and above) for 5x00 series. (Hint: Rename /home/QtPalmtop/bin/datebook to e.g. /home/QtPalmtop/bin/datebookwech to prevent alarm notification by the Sharp calendar app) KO/Pi can sync calendar/todo/journal data with any local ics file. In KO/Pi you can create a specific profile for each device to sync with. KO/Pi can automatically down/upload a remote ics file to a temp file via user specified system command (e.g. ssh/scp, ftp, ...) to sync with. KO/Pi can ask you, if a conflict while syncing is detected and displays a detailed view of both events/todos. - Multiple sync with many profiles at once is supported. + Multiple sync with many profiles at once is supported.
