I concur with the above. I used to try to sync dates between the two, but
you end up with such a mess, that it's hardly worth it. In the end, I
created one category in Now Up To Date that I would sync. I also learned to
never, ever sync repeating events or todos. That is a disaster waiting to
happen. :-) By syncing a very small subset of only those most important,
non-repeating events, I was able to keep my troubles to a minimum, but I
never escaped them until I stopped syncing entirely. Now, I only use my
Newton for dates. It sits on my desk when I'm at home, and is always
available for consultation, so it's not as big of a deal as one might
suppose. :-)
