What is the response to a partial message? Another <sync>, or something 
else? Seems like you should be able to take all of the calendar 
entries, put them into a queue in the session (in the State object?) 
and then keep sending <sync> commands until the queue is empty...?

I agree with Jan that this isn't end-user stuff for now, though useful 
for debugging.

What I'd like to see as end-user options is:

- what calendar should new events be added to
- what calendars should be synced

etc. for notes, tasks, contacts.

Btw, I don't think I told you/the list that I tested notes syncing with 
Synthesis on my Treo 650, and it worked perfectly. Thanks! This is 
awesome progress. If there are specific coding things I can help with 
please let me know; my wife _really_ wants calendar syncing. =)
