I also have found NE (Note Everything) useful for regular notes, but don't know of a way to sync them with my desktop. Looking at NE's website, it doesn't seem to offer that.

So I've started using Google Tasks (desktop) and gTasks (Droid) quite a bit for simple notes -- it's designed primarily for "to-do" lists but you can use it for any sot of brief notes & reminders ....

Google Tasks is a great little app - there's a link (often ignored by users) to it in the left-hand window whenever you open GMail or Google Calendar (if you assign a due-date to a Task it'll show up on Calendar, but you don't have to do this). I find Google Tasks very user-friendly.

gTasks, available from Droid Market, puts the equivalent app on your Droid. It doesn't auto-sync, but you simply press Menu, then press Sync.

Obviously, Google Tasks and gTasks don't let you do all the things Evernote does, but for jotting down and syncing simple notes, it works great!
