Palm m125 calendar sync question

On impulse recently I got a Palm m125 from eBay. I chose that model because it's one of the most recent that takes AAA batteries.

I've given it a cursory fiddle, but find it quite limited for potential to use on a daily basis. One idea I had was to sync my work google calendar and/or my home icloud calendars to it, but that's non-trivial.

I think the correct workflow would be:

1. Manually download calendar in ical format

2. Use a tool to convert ical to vcal format

3. Have the Palm Desktop app import the vcal, and sync

But I haven't even got round to trying this non-automated POC yet.

If anyone has any suggestions about how else to get this done, I'd be very curious!

I was looking for a conversion tool earlier this week, and didn't have much luck. Supposedly the ical and vcal formats are near-identical, but no amount of minor alterations I'd come across would satisfy Palm Desktop.

I'm very interested in hearing about any progress you make on this front.

@Addison I had found this old ical2vcal repo on google code, which might work
