Synching works in my situation. iSync also works well. I do miss 
Avantgo and have taken to using JPlucker--a Java-based web downloader 
with a companion Palm reader (Plucker). I'm not totally satisfied with 
JPlucker because it will not convert some sights that require 
subscriptions. Some have gotten it to work with the New York Times, for 
instance, but I have not.
