None of the palm devices depend in iSync. They all come with their regular software and hotsync capabilities. The Zire 71 works just fine with hotsyncing, because the iSync was just an afterthought after Apple's iSync features. I do hotsync only on one computer, because I like the palm hotsync features in addressbook and datebook, and the photos are synced , too. And when something in missing in one or the other Zire, I just beam it in . This way the iSync does not get mixed up.
