Bot korganizer and evolution can supposedly sync to a Palm, but I have
never gotten it to work.  Since I live in my palm, this has never been a
solution for me.

I use jpilot.  I is a pretty good reimplementation of the built-in palm
apps for addresses, calender, menus, and todo lists.  It has never
failed me on syncing, but it is not as full featured as korganizer
and/or Evolution.
