Actually, I forgot that you could look into running OpenSync on your
desktop. I think it has a SyncML plugin that can act as a server. If it
works, then you could run syncevolution on the N900 to sync with
OpenSync on the desktop, and have OpenSync talk to your desktop PIM, be
it Evolution, KDEPIM, or whatever. I just can't give you a howto, since
I don't use OpenSync. I just sync with the web services myself.
