I currently use Palm Desktop at home and Microsoft Outlook at work to store contact info, calender, etc. I'm searching for a software application that will easily synchronize my Palm m130 with both the Palm Desktop and Microsoft Outlook. I know there are many applications that will perform synchronization with one or the other, but wasn't sure about both. Does anyone recommend / suggest an application that may be helpful? I also use Outlook Express at home and would like to sync to that if possible as well. Any suggestions?

I do this as well. I use Chapura PocketMirror to sync with Outlook, which is bundled with most of the Palms now, I think, so it should be with yours. The way to set it up is to just install Palm Desktop on both machines, and on the home machine, choose "Sync with Palm Desktop" then on the work machine select "Sync with Microsoft Outlook" It works fine. The only limitation is you can only sync your email inbox with one of them, either your home email or work. One way around this is to use Eudora in one of those places for email. Eudora comes with its own seperate Palm email application, so say if you used Eudora at home, that application would be used to sync email from their, and the built-in Palm email application would be used to sync with your work Outlook email.
I believe the product listed below was developed specifically for the purpose you've described. I've not tried it myself but have heard good things about it.
Good luck
