Have you considered using SynCE[1]?  I've been tinkering with it on my PDA,
and okay, whilst I haven't got everything working just yet, file
synchronisation works, as does network access.

I suspect it can be made to talk to Evolution via some plugins -- I'm still
investigating here.  It may also talk to Kontact (KDE's Outlook clone -- part
of the upcomming KDE 3.5 release) -- but I'm yet to test that out, as the test
rig[1] I use lacks suitable serial ports[2].  I'm also too lazy to slap ~mips
keywords on it. ;-)

Maybe when I decide to try out KDE 3.5 on an x86 box, I'll give it a shot and
report back.

1. My crash-and-burn box currently is an SGI Indigo2 Impact (a.k.a I2 R10000,
a.k.a IP28).  It runs Gentoo/MIPS 2005.0 with an n32 (partially 64-bit)
userland. -- *Crash* is about the right word -- as n32 is flakey at best, and
the IP28 is broken by design.
2. I only have one Mini-Din8 -> DB9 adaptor (hand made) -- and even then, ppp
at 38400 is not exactly my idea of über performance. ;-)
