In fact I am taking that approach with my Linux/Evolution + Mac/email +
iPod/touch setup. This is for contacts and calendars. The main problem
is that I do not have internet access enabled on my Nokia phone - it is
provided by work. For that device, PC connectivity is needed. But, I
think it would be a good direction to take. What is lacking is a
phone-based app to make this happen.
