I have a palm pilot-- (and Sparteye mentioned she has a Handspring) I usually sync my palm with my work mail/calendar system, with my home PC..
I am heading up a pilot program at work for Palm's-- and because we use Lotus Notes ( a very secure application) setting up the Palm to sync is tricky--
was is also tricky is talking about a successful sync in the past--
sync, of course, is short for synchronize. (and is really the wrong word for the action, since i am actually "replicating" the same information in several places, rather that having actions occur at the same time)
But sync is quick easy way to define the process by which the information is replicated.. but how do you say Sync'ed? or do you go back to the full word and say synchronized? are there other words that have their tenses so out of sync?
we tend to "recast our sentences", so as to not use a past tense.
