> Hmmmm... I think I need an example to grok this. :-) Apart from the cups example? When you plug in another hard drive into your computer. Even if you make it a master drive, which messes up your /dev/sda numbering, the uuid on the drive in fstab will make sure your boot will still mount the right drives in the right ways and the right places.

Weather to sync and what to sync, is a job for configs, normally these are handled by tying one end point to another (see conduit for examples) It's the fact that a device is connected, and available to choose to be synced. Perhaps the way OpenSync works, isn't a useful way to do it (since it's all manual). Perhaps it'd be useful to investigate accepting uuids to identify a blackberry as well as any PIN?
