Re: [NTLK] On Syncing

I Agree. In the long term, SyncML would be the best choice. I do not know the specifications of this standart to see what could be lost from newton synchonization data, but I have no doubt that it is the most supported standard in any platform.

The point could be the development of a Newton Application that works connecting the Newton using this standard.

Best,
Andy.
