file sync solution??

here's my setup:

1 desktop (server)
1 laptop
1 pda

i have the "my documents" folder on both the laptop and the desktop. in that folder is the "mobile" folder that i want to sync to my pda using active sync. i have a hosted exchange account that deals with everythingo outlook.

what's the best way for me to keep all that stuff in sync? basically, i want the desktop and laptop to sync with each other constantly (like, as soon as i change a file on one or the other) and if I change a file on the pdal, i want it to sync to the mobile folder in both the desktop and laptop when i use active syc on either.

finally, i want to backup the "my documents" folder on the desktop from the main harddrive to a secondary harddrive.

ideas?

yeah, that looks pretty good. i just wish it had a listener on it so that it would be instant. but, it'll do i guess...unless anyone knows something better.
