I had a similar experience, but I had the disk space...

I had this too-- so I did a palm sync 'copy from pilot' and it fixed
them.
The problem I then had was with evolution and sync'ing my Tasks and
Calendar. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=286896
for some of my adventures. Unfortunately, it isn't resolved yet. Are
people able to sync their palm's reliably with evolution 2? I can't
seem to even sync reliably (and by that I mean without having evolution
add literally thousands of blank entries to the calendar or tasks) when
no changes were made on the palm or evo.

Got to admit, after some 5 hours of struggling with my issues and trying
to provide good information for a bug report, I was wondering the same
thing.
