There is a database file that D2G uses on the PC that tells it where all the files are. I think that you could transfer that file to the new laptop and it should then "remember" where everything is. I don't remember which file it is but that shouldn't be to hard to figure out.

It does sync just fine with my 4gb card in my Centro, and Cardinfo reports correctly on the card status. Not sure what you're seeing!! However, that's not the issue for me - the issue is losing the sync relationship when syncing the same files on a new computer! I haven't had time to migrate to my new 8gb card. Will report back when that happens. Anyone have more information on reestablishing the sync relationship between the same files but on a new computer?

Palm doesn't view large cards, so neither does DTG, so if you're between 2-4GB you keep getting the "card full" error message. I don't want to have to make the effort to sync. I tried out sugarsync, and find that it suits my needs for now as far as keping certain documents synchronized between multiple computers - and access on my Centro. I'm very disappointed with DTG as far as its sync ability goes.
