too - great device - shame about the lack of future for Maemo/Meego on Nokia
handsets.  There's a great community for the device though and loads of
useful apps/information.

I have to say though, that the way I sync information with Evolution is via
a MS Exchange server that we use at work.  It works really well for OTA
synchronisation - and syncs pretty much all the information that you
mention,

If you want to sync gmail contacts with the phone and with Evolution, I
suspect the only way is to sync both the device and Evolution with Gmail
itself -rather than to sync the phone with the netbook.

There's an article on syncing gmail and evolution here -

Does this help at all?
