synchronization

My wife and I each have Palm Centro phones and very full calendars. We've been using Palm products for years and are happy with them and are not looking to switch (and don't have the budget for it even if we wanted to).

What is a viable way we can synchronize our calendars?

Back when we had Palm Z22s we used AirSet. It worked great in synchronizing our desktop calendars. Unfortunately, their sync software does not support Palm Desktop v6 and there is nothing in the pipeline to support it. (The third party vendor is apparently not interested in updating for the newer Palm desktop.)

I would love to be able to get back to having each other's appointments appear on the other's calendar. What can we do?

Some limitations:

A data plan is not an option (so this precludes over-the-air synchronization options)
No Microsoft Outlook

Edit: Syncing my Palm to my Palm Desktop is not the issue. Being able to sync, in some way, the Palm calendar databases of my wife's and my calendars is what's desired.
