Exactly. I think there are a lot of people who don't sync their phone with *anything* ... for example (and yes, the plural of anecdote is not data) I back my nokia up to its mini-SD card, but I don't sync it... after all, I don't need phone numbers anywhere but my phone! I'm basically going to arrange something to parse those vcards, and that'll do; a todo/calendar app will probably use vcal, rss, and maybe hiveminder (task.hm) since I've already got lots of code to talk to them, and *that's* something usefully shared. But that's where data service and wifi come in... _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
