Funambol is ideal for commercial and home server use and possibly
Blackberry users on desktop, but is a little heavy weight for the home
desktop only (and the demo web client is a bit limited). A good
alternative is egroupware (which has the added advantage of being in the
SuSE repositories, and not requiring the installation and configuration
of Tomcat or JBoss).

If you can get a local IP link between PC and device all things are
possible (puTTY or VNC on a symbian phone is a bit of fun, and there is
a rather handy free phoned based FTP server).
