Follow up thoughts on the thread:

I *would* miss is the option of working on a desktop. Palm Desktop provides 
a duplicate of the device data and the 'enhanced' UI - when doing billing 
this week I realized that this is another part of the problem - having 
calendar records available and updateable.

This might indicate a slight preference towards a web app, ..

Exporting data is not a problem, .. having a usable UI on the desktop might 
be the bigger issue.

Heading to the store over the weekend, .. want to check out the new HTC 
Android phone and the Storm 2.

Thanks for all the comments!
