I've been playing around for a few weeks with my Palm under Linux and 
one thing I haven't found alot of are applications that work with Palm 
data.  For example Landsware has a great application called Pocket 
Quicken that shares data with Quicken under Windows.  I have not been 
able to find a simlar program for GnuCash. 

This is not just a Linux problem, but IMHO there are very few desktop 
applications that work well with Palm programs outside of the standards 
(Datebook, Addressbook etc.)    It seems that developers don't focus 
nearly as much on the desktop part of the equation as they do the Palm 
OS side. In my opinon, a Palm OS device should be an extension of the 
desktop, not just a stand alone device.  Has anyone thought about doing 
something like ThinkdB that could work with an database program like 
mySQL along with a user interface that would run in Java on a browser?

Have I missed a good resource somewhere for desktop applications that 
take advantage of conduits or plugins for J-pilot?

Tom
