For fun, I copied the *.DBF data files from the dejapim folder to my PC, over Bluetooth. I opened them with Foxpro, and was able to easily edit them, and copy data from Outlook into them. Then when I imported these updated data files, back to the 770, I had data in DejaPim.

It's not rocket science. If someone wanted to create a file-based sync, that synced with Bluetooth, after populating those dBase files from Outlook, it would not be that difficult. I am not doing anything like this, in case you are wondering. I just thought it was interesting and I wanted to try it.

I mentioned this in my most recent blog post. (http://thoughtfix.blogspot.com/2006/01/dejadesktop-mini-review.html) - I hope CompanionLink does something about a "local desktop sync" even if it goes over wifi.
