Things are always more complicated than they should be.
Shiny has been acquired. I went with the Palm TX, because I really couldn't justify the need for the LifeDrive. Really, this TX is fabulous, and all I really need or want.
It is now also syncing w/ iCal, AddressBook, and SOHO Notes. Due to my own stupidity, it took me a lot longer than it should have. Tomorrow, I'm going to try to convince it to install a couple legacy apps that I (heart) dearly, plus <insert ominous music here> SmartList To Go.
We'll see how it goes.
Tomorrow, I will also try to convince my network that the TX is indeed allowed to use the wireless network, and also see if I can enable Bluetooth synching, because the business end of the USB cable looks scary (flimsy) as hell. It does have a cute little button on it though.
But, that's all the tech hassles I can take for one day.
