Before I moved from my PalmPilot III (still works) to an iPhone (not 3G), I
used JPilot for my PIM and Sylpheed-Claws (the name has changed?) for
email.  This was a good setup because there was a plugin that allowed
Sylpheed-Claws to  access the JPilot addressbook.

I currently use webcalendar (with apache, php, postgresql) for my calendar.
This is overkill for an individual; but has many advantages for family
scheduling:  I can add an item to my wife's calendar with an email
reminder.  Since my wife has a blackberry email address, the message will
get pushed to her phone.  When testing this feature, I would suggest
starting with something like a dinner invitation rather than a grocery list.
   ;-)

Have fun,

Andrew
