linux sync for blackberry?

[lparsons42]

Is anyone synchronizing their pearls in Linux? I know software exists for that and I was wondering if anyone here has had any success with it. If so what distribution and versions are you using?

There used to be an app, but is no longer being developed and will not work with any latest OS.

I was looking into this about 8 months ago when I first got my pearl. There was a little progress, but IIRC most success was had via syncing Linux with something like google/yahoo/etc and then syncing the berry OTA. There was some software that would allow Linux to see a BB connected via USB, which would sort of see an old 7100g that I was borrowing at the time. It was also able to charge the 7100g and theoretically a pearl as well, but I couldn't ever get it to see the pearl.

I haven't followed this much, as I am syncing via Google OTA and that is working reasonably well. I dual boot with XP so I hop on there once in a while to make a backup with DM.

Edit: I'm running Ubuntu Hardy Heron

Seems there is some update for the linux world.
