That would work with any USB UMS (usb mass storage). Nokia or any Android device.

Most of Android devices will do as it comes within it from version 2.2. Nokia's phones usually work as well.
 My n900 works via USB, Bluetooth and wifi.

Again, any Android phone will work. Many Nokias too.

I've managed to sync my Nokia N900 calendar with korganizer through Google and akonadi-googledata (development version of 
kdepim). I haven't tested the contacts side yet.

In this future weeks I'll try to set up a Kolab installation on my server and try syncing to it by using syncml on my phone (the 
support on kdepim is already there AFAIK).
