I have a Palm Pilot which I use for personal matters. I sync with my Mac at home. This allows my wife, who uses the Mac, and me to share a calendar and address book. However, she would now like to get a Palm. It seems, from what I learned at the Palm web site http://kb.palmone.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE/,/?St=148,E=0000000000028782588,K= 9451,Sxi=10,useTemplate=Case.tem,CASE=26415 , that syncing two handheld devices with the personal computer software is not as easy I would have thought. Any thoughts?

I thought it was supposed to be easier than that. There is an excellent book (I think it was by David Pogue) on the Palm; it's one of the "Missing Manual" series. Stop by the Apple Store and leaf through it. You might get the solution without spending any money, or you'll spend some money and find a lot of cool things you can do with the Palm.

Related question:

Anyone have any info or links on syncing Mail on my Powerbook with Mail on my G4 desktop? I'm guessing Bluetooth would need to be involved, which laptop has.
