I've been trying to find a review of iSync. I have a t68 and I'm
taking delivery of a new powerbook in the next week. I was 
wondering whether any of you have done bidirectional updates
when using iSync? Specifically, can you enter new appointments
in your phone? Since iCal is more sophisticated, are the
new appointments found on the phone flagged in some manner so
that you could enrich the settings if desired in iCal. I also
use a Palm Vx but have been thinking of abandoning that if
the synch with one's phone works. I currently use xtndconnect PC
and gave up on entering dates in the t68 directly due to 
difficiencies. I've found xtndconnect most effective in a master
slave type configuration as opposed to bi-directional updating.
This is specifically for calendar entries as opposed to address
book changes.
