I've got two going on, actually.

I'm using goosync (www.goosync.com) to keep my Treo 680 (should work with
any Palm...and they have versions of their client for other PDAs, as well,
I believe) calendar sync'd up with Google Calendar.

I'm also running Citadel (http://www.citadel.org), at home, with the
Funambol connector that's being maintained to direct connect to Citadel
(http://bionicmessage.net/index.php?q=node/11).

Citadel also supports webdav/groupdav/caldav, so Thunderbird w/Lightning
works well with it.

Other folks I've chatted with use korganizer, kontact, and a host of other
clients.
