Can someone suggect a ROM / PIM combo that works?
My needs are:
1. A translated rom that can be installed on an 860
2. A PIM that works and uses a data format that is readable (ie. not DTM format)
I\'ve been using TKC 2.5.1 and the opie PIM apps version \"1.0.0-sharprom\". But it turns out that the opie todo has a bug that make it unusable (It doesn\'t save changes until close). Even though I\'d like to get into zaurus development and just fix it myself, I just don\'t have time right now.
My problems are that I haven\'t been able to install OZ on my 860. The default PIMs with TKC use DTM format which is doesn\'t allow easy editing. With TKC I have only been able to get the 1.0.0-sharprom from the handhelds site to install (which has the previously mentioned bug). X11 is cool but there are no PIM apps. I tried the cacko rom, but it has the same PIM problems as TKC. I understand that OZ development has morphed into OpenEmbedded, but it doesn\'t seem to be \"ready\" for newbies like me.
Has anyone had luck with an 860? When I first got it, I tried a lot of the various roms and software but I haven\'t had time lately to keep trying diferent combinations. I\'d like to hear if someone with an 860 has things working.

+Qtopia based Rom ( TKC 2.5.1 or cacko Qtopia Rom)
KO/Pi syncs with sharp DTM or any iCalendar ( *.ics ) file.
It can save selections to files. It beams entries via IR to phones or other PDAs or the laptop.
KO/Pi is available for Win32 and Linux desktop as well.
