Sync'ing with paper

While I'm still waiting for my electronic paper thingie, I found someone who explains how to use iSync to synchronise iCal with a HipsterPDA. It's not as cool as it sounds though :) When I first read about it, I though about OCR, scanning and a bit of fairy dust (or something), but it's much more low tech then that. It's actually just a way of using iCal to handle the various lists suggeted by GTD, and with a bit of AppleScript it's possible to format the lists and have the result put onto the clipboard. With that one can paste the formatted lists into word, and print them. I'm not sure I would call it synchronising iCal with a HipsterPDA (since data in the HipsterPDA can't automatically be put into iCal) but the idea is nice anyway.
