I'm not currently doing anything like this, but pondering the idea for
later on with one of my projects.  One thing that could be done is to get
the needed information in XML, or some more easily parsed format, over
HTTP with the conduit and have it put the data in the needed database
format on the Palm device.

Pro?  Well, that would depend on the use.

Con?  It could slow down synching considerably depending on network lag
and other factors.
