Yes, that's one thing that lacks at the moment, although there are
Compact Flash cards that can do that, all of them are for PPC. A driver
would be good.

The Zaurus has two sync apps that can be used for Windows. First is
Intellisync, to sync with outlook, and Qtopia Desktop, similar to Palm
desktop. It's quite different for Linux desktops though; only Qtopia
desktop is available and to enable USB networking requires patching the
kernel, although there are RPMs available for RH 7.x

Another way to sync via Linux is using 802.11b, which is possible using
the 2.37 Sharp ROM or any version of Open Zaurus.
