I've successfully gotten coldsync and the Clie to play nice, to some degree.  
It hangs during the ReadDBList process.
Some observations:
--The Clie does -not- send the password or a hash of the password.  This is 
probably intentional.  It may do differently over netsync or Irsync.
--The sync process gets up to the ReadDBList stage, successfully reads the 
first database, but only the first.  It then asks for the second (start == 1) 
and times out waiting for the response.  When the Palm Desktop software asks 
for the DBList, it uses different flags and obtains a -lot- more info in a 
shot (the first 76 databases in one packet, the remainder in the next).  Is 
coldsync's one-database-per-packet intentional?  Because it doesn't seem to 
work. :-)
So in short, progress has been made, but annoying bugs still exist. :-)
