[Remind-Fans] Approaches to remind and Blackberry/other PDA, handhelds, etc.?

[Justin Alcorn]

Actually, I do it the other way around.  I guess the hole in my
suggestion is that entries in the reminders file don't get synced - I
use ical2rem to convert my calendar to reminders.    I've never used
rem2ics, although I should probably take a look at it.
