Hi, there,

is there any Linux interface for 3Com's PalmPilot? I have found only an
address-interface (called pi-address, version 0.2.2). I'd rather like to
have a similar interace as for Win95 (including TODO, ADDRESS,
CARLENDAR, MEMO etc.)

Thanks in advance!

There's a HOWTO on it, the Pilot-HOWTO.  It gives references to a
bunch of programs you can use with the Pilot.

You need the kdelibs+kdesupport packages, if there's is no statically linked
binary available (which would be a kind of overkill if you don't use KDE
already).

Feel entirely free to use these tools write such a program with a
Win95-like interface.  Nothing is stopping you, and there are many to
encourage you to do so.

<ftp://ftp.graphics-muse.org/pub/XNotesPlus/> also provides support of
the Memo and Address systems; there is a KDE project program that may
provide some calendaring support.

It is unlikely that there will be a monolithic application quite like
the W95 one; Linux encourages the notion of having separate applications
that may (or may not) intercommunicate.
