Mobile Master
Kimblim suggested I had a look at Mobile Manager to solve my synchronization problems. It does have potential, but somehow it's still not quite right. I can't seem to have Sunbird open when I start the mobile manager, and it doesn't sync data back to sunbird. I've tried to create a task in sunbird, sync it to the mobile and that part works. The problem arises when i e.g. tick the task off as done, and try to sync it back. Mobile manager sees the change, and markes the task as completed, but it soesn't seem to sync back to sunbird. Sunbird still thinks the task is active. It might just be a setting in mobile manager, but I can't seem to get it to work.
Maybe I'm looking at it the wrong way around. I'm looking for something that can help me implement the GTD system, and make sure that I have my lists with me all the time. At the moment, the lists I do have, is on my work laptop which I don't allways have near me. I've thought about just using my filofax, but it's still a fairly bulky thing to have with me all the time, and I would prefer to have it all on my phone (as I've said before). It just seems as if the phone really isn't the place to have that kind of information, or that the phone I chose just isn't capable of dealing with my lists.
I'm still looking at my PDA (a Dell Axim X30) for a sollution, but I'm not sure I want to be lugging it around with me, since I already have the phone, and sometimes also my filofax....it's one of those dead ends, that seem impossible to get out of, untill you notice the small door in the side of the building :) So far I'm still looking for that door...maybe it's a hole in the fence or a trap door...or maybe i'm just rambling ;)
