Eh, no worries. I find Maemo 5 autocomplete to be less than absolutely stellar anyways, probably only a 5-10 percent bump in typing speed. Thanks for looking and happy holidays.

Would love to know this as well. I have tried to do this but they seem to have very different and incompatible file types. If you just upload your note directly it will just come up as a document containing all sorts of coding in it (like if you open a Tomboy note with Word Pad).

If you copy and paste to google docs or Word then you lose your formatting. And my formatting is very important to me.

I just spent the afternoon getting about 80 of my notes into google docs in a manner which preserves my formatting. Very slow and painful process. And still have over a 100 to go but have parked these for now cause just do not have the strength to do that anytime soon. Hopefully someone will find a solution.

Anyway how I got them into google docs with formatting preserved was I synced with ubuntu. Then I had to go into each doc and copy and paste the text of the notes into google docs as new documents. Could not find any other way to get my docs there with formatting preserved.

I never used Google Docs, so I don't know. For Android, have a look at Tomdroid.

Well, I never used Tomdroid, but it's supposed to sync with Tomboy-Online / Ubuntu One / Snowy. So simply sync Conboy to one of those services and then sync Tomdroid and everything should be fine

I'm having trouble with syncing conboy with ubuntu one. I have a note stored there that was created in tomboy on my computer, but conboy won't download it. Notes created on conboy are synced perfectly.

Any ideas?

Ok, I managed to solve the problem by updating the note from my computer and then syncing. That bumped the latest-sync-revision property of the note from 0 to 1, making conboy notice it.

To me that seems like a bug in conboy: It should not ignore notes it hasn't seen, even if the latest-sync-revision property is 0.

Syncing with Ubuntu One works like a charm for me. As the lazy person, I am I wish I the N900 could sync automatically, so I wouldn't need to remember to push the sync button after every change.

To reduce costs would be nice to have options like this:
- Wifi: automatically sync every xx minutes (zero for never).
- GPRS: automatically sync every xx minutes. (zero for never)
-- [x] Don't sync via GPRS when in Roaming
If the options are there already, maybe somebody can point me in the proper direction?

After some research I found related
Code:
Bug 10943 - Provide a possibility to synchronize via CLI command
that is more than 6 month old. Any news?

two questions popped into my mind re conboy sync:
* why doesnt conboy sync button press bring up the connection selection dialog automatically?
* is it possible on maemo to automatically load wifi kernel module before whenever connection selection dialog is shown + unload kernel module when connection is dropped/disconnected?

Yes, that would be nice. I've not implemented it right away, because I wasn't sure if the sync code is stable enough yet. Currently it looks like still some people have troubles from time to time, but it could be added as an option of course.

These options would make sense and it is possible to ask the system about those and in application code react accordingly. We "only" need someone to implement that. Also I'd welcome CLI sync as well.

Unfortunately I'm quite busy with non-Conboy stuff, so I doubt I can do it anytime soon. Of course if someone here wants to help out and send patches I'll integrate them.
