Agreed, but I'd take it one step further. Given the neo has an internet connection, why can't PIM data be stored on a web server and just cached locally. Couldn't you then integrate that into desktop PIM applications too? Ok, so this isn't a new idea. :-) Evolution Data Server supports integration to groupware backends, but from what I've seen, these are enterprise-class groupware servers designed for corporations. I can't seem to find anything designed for the consumer, an internet-accessible groupware server I can sign up to and store my contacts in a single place. The problem is not local - I'd be surprised if Embedded EDS couldn't be adapted to store it's data on a server and just use a cached dataset locally. The problem is that this requires some server infrastructure and so far I've yet to find something which will do it. Has anyone else seen this done?
