gpesyncd is automatically installed whenever you install any of the GPE applications. However, OpenSync is not currently usable and it has no way to connect to Outlook or Exchange.

As the data is already on the N900 via PC suite is it possible to import it from the inbuilt database?
That is probably the most likely way forward, but there are no tools to do that yet. One day either SyncEvolution or OpenSync should be able to do that.

In the meantime you are really stuck with the limited capabiltiies built in to GPE which are of the form of import and export. This doesn't really solve the sync problem, however.
