No syncing on that style yet. There is also:

Or you could just pay the "silly" fee and not have to program it all
yourself or worry about beta software.

I use .Mac for a lot of things. It isn't silly in the least and the price
is competitive with other services (especially if you don't know a WebDAV
config file from a pizza). I updated my .mac this year for $79 -- just
over $6.50 a month, about the same I pay annually for my offbalance.com
ISP. And with .Mac I don't have to program anything. Perfect for being
lazy or if I didn't know anything at all.

If you don't like it or don't think you'll use its services, then fine,
but calling .Mac and annual fees silly sounds as if you think people are
silly paying for something they might find useful, and it just rankles me.

But have a great weekend anyway! :)
