Migrating from Treo to Blackberry

I just got my first BB and as a long time palm user I am forced with trying to figure out how to migrate all my data. I attempted to use the BB migration tool but it is pretty much useless. I know about using pocket copy but can anyone suggest anything else?
Cheers
Howie

Sync the Treo with Outlook, then sync the Blackberry with Outlook using Blackberry desktop.

Alternatively, export all the Treo data to CSV's and import that into outlook.

There are a bunch of howtos. Just remember to back up first.

There is also a migration manager - howto is here: http://www.blackberrycool.com/2005/1...to-blackberry/

Thanks Scott my hotsync kept on crashing so I ended up buying pocket copy...

I have both (Palm is personal, Berry for work). I synch both with Outlook, everything is on both phones.
