I haven't played with gnome-pilot and evolution in a while. I've been 
using Jpilot with my Treo 600. I did have the two setup and I vaguely 
remember dealing with and developing a workaround for the issues with 
the Calendar. I'll redo that research later.

Kiffen, exactly what problems are you having. Can you get to Palm to 
Sync to anything?
