Whats working
In general synchronisation with webOS devices is working, but tine20 has some "device" switches to treat them differently.
Since Mialena (2010/03) its required to add a email account into tine20. Otherwise your webOS device will not sync!
Whats not working
Contact Birthdays
Since release Mialena (2010/03) birthdays from Palm webOS devices are not synched anymore! This is because a probable bug in webOS and its way of saving birthdays. The effect was, that contact birthdays sometimes showed up one date to early and also, when edited, synced back with wrong date to tine20.

Contact Address Information
webOS sends the whole address in one tag which shows up in the business street in tine20. Means you get street, postal code, city in one field.
Background
The ActiveSync code documents some of this behaviour:
Contacts.php:326: // the palm sets the birthday to the time the birthday got entered on the device Contacts.php:345: // palm pre sends the whole address in the <Contacts:BusinessStreet> tag
