> SyncML? 

SyncML is a "standard" based on an XML structure for sync-ing data
between two repositories.

My SyncML link list:
http://www.openmobilealliance.org/syncml/
http://www.cellular.co.za/syncml.htm
http://xml.coverpages.org/syncML.html
http://nicolas.bougues.net/syncml/
http://opengroupware.org/en/projects/syncml/
http://multisync.sourceforge.net/

SyncML should be VERY cool once everyone gets around to supporting it. 
Unfortunately it seems like M$-Windows and related products are draggin'
their feet (color me shocked).

Nope, its for everything.  Cell phones, etc... get re-engineered more
frequently, so SyncML has appear their first.  Not to mention that they
DESPERATELY needed some kind of standard.
