[edit] Can I sync with a Macintosh?

Check out OSX Zaurus Links.

  • Use the raw XML files.

The older Zaurus PIM applications (SL-5500) store their data in XML format. One could presumably FTP them from the Zaurus (under the "/home/root/Applications/" directory) and then parse the XML (perhaps using Perl, which comes with MacOSX) and convert it into something compatible with desktop software.

Applies to: SL-5000D, SL-5500

  • Use ZMacSync.

There is a shareware tool ZMacSync that syncs Addresses between MacOS X and a Zaurus with SharpROM or Cacko. Refer to http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/23274 for latest updates.

[edit] Can I sync with Linux?

  • Yes, using QtopiaDesktop

Trolltech has created "QtopiaDesktop" for Linux, which will let you sync the PIM software and transfer files and programs to/from the Zaurus. ftp://ftp.trolltech.com

  • Not with Evolution, at the moment

There are currently no plans from Ximian for Evolution to support the Zaurus. Open Source developers are working on this, however. There is already a Perl script which will sync the Zaurus' calendar with Evolution, [http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=39939
