Thanks for the links!
MobileWrite I have tried, it's slow, puts the usual limits on the UI (as opposed to just doing transparent full-screen recognition) and, AFAICT, has no way to input an "å" character.
EboBirthday I haven't heard of before. This can sync with my existing Google Contacts' birthdays and anniversaries? It looks promising, I hope it's not fixed on the US date format!
Yeah, I too use aTrackDog to keep up to date (also on the Palm), but there's no proper mass backup/restore (at least, w/o rooting; the best one can do is copy all the apk's to SD and then manually, sequentially, reinstall everything (soo tedious!).
I could find no info on "apn b&r"?
