Ah.. symbian phones and Linux... basically a bit of an exotic issue... the E65 is I believe a s60 v3 device... I would suggest trying out ... http://my-symbian.com or http://www.allaboutsymbian.com as start points for further info.... For my 9500 I have been experimenting with funambol (a Java based SyncML server) for synching, it works to some extent but the linux client tools are somewhat half built. Server installation is not trivial. Contacts sync OK but calendar support is more than a bit iffy (this seems to be a case of modifying the appropriate plug-in on the server side), the client plug-in for firefox (+ lightning) does work but the evolution sync tool needs a lot of TLC (it is supposed to work with Sunbird but it never has). (Forget KDE application support it really does not exist...) Most of the other linux based SyncML support is pretty ropey, and usually geared towards palm based PDAs. As SyncML is a mobile communications standard the lack of open source support for is a bit of a concern. I currently use a free FTP server on my 9500 and transfer data by WiFi when at home, It is no use for GPRS on my network cos the address space is NAT and there is no security on the server. There are FTP clients available for symbian phones, but they cost, The Nokia phone stuff is not really appropriate for symbian phones... the old PSION support stuff can work (I do not have a s60 phone so cannot verify it for those) but I did get some results with this on the 9500/9210/SE p800/SE p9xx phones. - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.

Just a bit too trigger happy...
