Yes, I agree, this would be a great thing to have. It wouldn't really
have to be very advanced to be useful. If anyone would be interested in
hacking on this I can try to help get the needed hooks in MrProject to
add this feature.

It would be interested if the PDA part could be shared here and a common
protocol to send the data. Then we can use gnome-pilot to access the PDA
from MrProject and Taskjuggler can use pilot-link directly (it's a
console based tool, right?)
