See plug archives re Sync-ML problems, but a simple 1-way contact backup
should be fine. And if you are lucky, "Dial Up Networking" for GPRS etc
access to internet. You could use your PC as a 'headset', or even connect
your own Asterisk PBX.
  Sony-Ericsson phones can be used as a BT remote control for your PC,
acting as mouse and keyboard. Useful for a Home-Theatre PC.
  You can browse to see which profiles are supported by your phone.
