Nokia Sync'ing?

    It's been a while since I've used a Nokia phone, the 8890 would have been my last model. Since then I've had SE phones and more recently Windows mobile phones. Main reasons for the windows phones was because of the hardware (WLAN & GPS). However with the imminent release of the Nokia N82 I will probably be moving platforms as it has what I need in a decent form factor.

    While the windows mobile was not the most user friendly it did sync very nicely with Outlook (mail, calendar, address book and sms via Jeyo plugin) but I want to get rid of Outlook, don't like it. So this leaves me with some questions..

    I can install Thunderbird & Lightning and using GCalDaemon I can sync my address book and calendar flawlessly with my Gmail account. As GCalDaemon acts as an LDAP server I can also sync with the default windows address book. The Nokia PC Suite can then sync with the windows address book and from what I understand it can also handle SMS sending and backup from the desktop. Now the only piece missing is sync'ing the nokia calendar with the google calendar or with Lightning. There is an app called GCalSync that could work but sounds buggy.

    So how are other Nokia users currently doing all this?

    I know there is an online portal called ScheduleWorld but I don't want my data going through a 3rd party, would rather a direct sync.
