    Ok.. I'm a pretty big fan of android. One thing I happen to love about android is it is very useful for PDA purposes.

    I am just wondering if there is anyway I can get similar functionality out of my desktop. I would like to be able from my desktop sync with my gmail account for to do list/calendar related stuff.

    I have searched around and unfortunately if anything exist I'm just not searching properly.

    I know I can always just open a browser and go to google however, It seems like there would be a program to sorta stream line the process so I can just sync my local calendar with the cloud later instead of having to readily have an available internet connection.

    look up the capabilities of the many and various PIM programs out there. Most of them have sync options that include the 'cloud'.
