ZMacSync is a tool to synchronize the Sharp Zaurus Personal Information with the standard Communication suite of the Apple Macintosh (MacOS X). This includes the Address Book, iCal calendars and to-do lists, as well as Stickies (notes) and the Zaurus system clock.

Synchronization is optimized so that only records are interchanged that are added, modified or deleted with as low data transformation loss as possible. User settings allow to completely protect against modification of certain data areas.

Here are some key features of "ZMacSync":
Secure access of Zaurus through USB or WLAN by using ssh
Full Unicode support
Configurable
Automatic detection of Zaurus connection status (hot-sync)
Individual enabling or disabling of data areas to be written to
Data areas synchronized:
Zaurus clock synchronization (assuming precise NTTP time on the Macintosh)
Log window
Delta-inspector (preview what has been detected as differences)
Includes AJZaurusUSB driver for MacOS X 10.3 and open-ssh.

Limitations:
reminding message on each sync.
