You're partly right, I only auto-sync the stuff I can fetch quickly,
like newstickers and stuff. For larger DB's this doesn't make sense.

I develop on Win XP and HotSync Manager 4.0, also tried it on a
machine with Palm Destop 3 and Win95. As far as the conduit is
concerned, it should be working with almost any HS manager.

GPL is fine for me. Most work was done by the component creators who
made the syncing components for Delphi, though - I can only provide
the code for my DLL. The components I used are free (postcardware, the
URL is http://www.whyzero.com/~paul/palm/index.html).

I'll publish the code later today, gotta fix some things first (like
cleaning up and stuff ;-))...
