No, I've not ever used .Mac sync. I have in the past turned on  
timezone support back when I initially set up the PDA with Missing  
Sync V1 - but I had a similar experience as you with events going all  
over the place, so rolled back and kept it turned off since then.

Certainly, the option to sync only a limited subset of my calendars  
would be helpful, as I'm not really keen on having to throw away  
large amounts of historic stuff in iCal that is useful for tracking  
what I was doing when, just to get the PDA to cope.

I have had a support call open with Markspace over a similar problem  
with hitting a calendar item, and failing, which got as far as  
Markspace suggesting that my iCal database was corrupt. However It is  
worth noting that, whilst the calendar app might not be as  
complicated, normal iSync quite happily syncs up my diary with my  
mobile phone (a SE K750i), including the records that Missing Sync is  
throwing up as being bad.
