Since the synchronization is initiated from the handheld and not the  
desktop, I'm not sure how this is even possible. Maybe in the Linux  
world, the connection to the handheld is not closed automatically.  
While we have no plans ourselves to do this, some developer can take  
the AvantGo Conduit source code (it is published on our website) and  
modify it and/or write an application on the handheld which initiates  
a sync periodically.
