Okay, I've got to ask something that's been bothering me for a while...
Is there any good reason why no sync applications were ever written for the
NOS 1.x systems?
I look at the Names app and it seems about as robust as the Palm equivalent.
I look at the Dates app and it seems complete enough.
I look at the Soup formats and see that the extra fields in 2.x are just
extensions of the what is in 1.x.
So, back to my question, would it be technially feasible to write a version
of, say, the nSync plugin which could run on a 1.x system and sync the
subset of data supported by the platform?
