Accessing your Palm Pilot on the Web

I'm looking for a web site that allows you to sync your Palm Pilot with their databases, and then access this information via the internet. I will be taking a long trip to a country where I would rather not worry about losing my Palm (or having it gently removed from my backpack), however I really would like to be able to get addresses/phone numbers or make notes in my Palm when necessary on a web site editor. Has anyone heard of a service like this before? I can't believe I've never heard anyone talk about something like this, but maybe the demand really isn't there.

Exactly where can you upload Palm information to Yahoo?

I'm a consultant by trade and consider myself fairly internet savvy, but I can't find anywhere that it says I can upload my Palm data to Yahoo Messenger. Is this only available with a web enabled Palm that is already connected to Messenger? I just have my trusty Palm V. So I am looking for somewhere I can upload my address book file for example, and then see that on the web.

Open your yahoo mail account online. Click on the address tab. In the upper right corner is an import/export button. Follow the on screen instructions to import the ABA file. You can then access from any internet portal that allows access to yahoo mail. If you have yahoo messenger all your address will be visible from the address tab after the upload. you can also sync your handheld with yahoo but since I have lots of work data, I don't sync. Every so often I just delete my online address book and reupload a current version of my address book.
