Well, this is what I've been working on the last five or six days...and
nights...:)
The upcoming Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring release will boast the easiest
ever support for synchronizing with Windows Mobile 5 and 6 devices in
any distribution. The adventurous can already try out the support in the
current 2008 Spring pre-release repositories, by following the
instructions <a
href="http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/2008.1_Synchronization">here</a>.
Mandriva has <a
href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMNpI3RUwo8">uploaded a video</a>
demonstrating how easy it is to synchronize with a Windows Mobile 6
device right out of the box with Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring. Support is
included for synchronizing with both KDE (KDE PIM) and GNOME
(Evolution). Similarly easy synchronization is also possible with many
Nokia phones and with Blackberry devices.
