Currently, I would say yes. Newtsync isn't ready for prime time in
that regard.
However, there is the super promising new software from Simon Bell
called NCX which is a "replacement" from Newton connection utilities
and seems most promising with regards to syncing (go Simon!).
It's not there yet, but it's very promising, so you might be able
to do what you want, real soon now.
