[missing-sync-palmos-talk] Conduits for same data; memo app; exporting photos; exporting Clie Memos

As another Clie/MS4 user, I certainly can't answer all these questions, 
but I have a few comments that might help:

A usb memory stick reader works fine (multiple-format memory card 
readers can be had for about $20); just make sure the photos are saved 
to the memory stick, plug the stick in to the reader that's connected 
to your mac, and the stick loads as a drive on your desktop (and in 
many cases will automatically offer to import the photos into iphoto).

I've noticed, though, that jpegs can be loaded from the mac to the clie 
with a sync by dropping them in the bottom "memory stick" pane of 
Missing-sync. For some reason, .doc files do not sync; don't know why. 
I haven't tried .mpg's this way. But in any case, the fact that at 
least some files can be synced onto the memory stick using MissingSync 
suggests a partial workaround.

I certainly wish there were. (Or even better: freenote doodles; I have 
a TH55.) The only way I know to get a doodle out of a clie is by taking 
a screenshot. (There's a program called "ritemail" that supposedly 
works with palm that not only allows you to email handwritten notes but 
also translate them using cursive handwriting recognition; anybody know 
anything about that?)
