    Don't worry. JPilot doesn't do "it all", so it's understandable, IMO, that 
    you'd want explore other desktop solutions. God knows I've struggled to get 
    Kontact (KDE's Evolution counterpart) to work for me, because it would be 
    sweet, but am not willing to live with gorked data and issues with the UI.
    
    Thank goodness for JPilot, or I'd be stuck with KPilot!
    
    I'm not sure what the problem is, but one thing that needs to be verified is 
    that one of these other programs isn't locking up the serial port used to 
    connect, i.e., "gpilot" or some such daemon process.
