Thanks for a really nice article about the flexibility and power of the n800. Having a relatively powerful machine in your pocket is great.
However it's worth mentioning that using mail for syncing n800 gpe and macintosh ical isn't necessary. Erminig can sync n800 gpe with google calendar, and syncing ical with google calendar works fine. The only problem I notice is that n800 alarms aren't preserved (however it would probably not be too difficult to hack erminig - a python script - to translate gpe alarms to one of google's attention mechanisms)
