Sync with USB key

[being_earnest]

Hi all,

Please excuse my newbie question. Have had my Powerbook for a couple months now and I'm loving its ease-of-use and functionality. I end up running around a lot (somtimes without my Powerbook) and have bought a 256MB USB key to "portablize" my active documents. Is there a way to automatically synchronize the files on the key with those on my powerbook hard drive easily?

It seems that iSync would be the most logical option...but I don't think this is supported. Mostly pdf and Office files.

Thanks for your time.

This is an interesting idea -- I wonder if there is a similar tool to make one of these USB sticks serve as a "low rent" PDA. (simply to sync information across 2 computers and even 2 OS's - i.e. my work PC and my home Mac)

Maybe some sort of folder action? I want to snyc my drive as well for school.
