I have played incessantly with an interface between TB! and Palm
Desktop.  I wish that I was smart enough to build a conduit. But that
is another story.

If you click on File/Export to/VCard, TB will export the entire
address list.  For some reason, Palm will only accept a VCard file
that contains about 20 entries maximum.  If you select up to 20
entries and click on File/Export to/Export Selection . . ., it will
generate a VCard file that Palm Desktop will accept.

I found that to be a pain in the [EMAIL PROTECTED]  So, I've reverted to using a
comma delimited file.  It's still a pain, but easier than trying to
group 20 contacts together and get a VCard that will work.

When I want to sync., I generate the .csv file from TB, then delete
all the addresses in Palm Desktop, then import the .csv.

I have the mapping that I use and if interested, I will post it.
