Re: Mac OS X Qtopia desktop!

I finally got around to trying Qtopia desktop on the Mac. I'm using an 
iBook<yeah can't afford the Powerbook yet> 500mhz with airport. And 
connecting through a linksys wireless router/switch. I'm using OZ 3.2. Now 
my zaurus takes a 192.168.1.103 and my mac is .101 when I go to sync it 
connects "fine" gives me the The screen on the zaurus to sync and it says it 
goes through a syncs. But when I check my calendar I get nothing, I don't 
believe it sync'ed any of the other applications. Am I missing something?
