I'm happy with eWallet. No free, but not very expensive, and you can
try before you buy. Definitely has a desktop app; in fact, I enter
data only in the desktop version, and treat my phone copy as
read-only. See www.handango.com

It has a surprisingly robust sync mechanism too, including the ability
to sync multiple sources at once.
I have my desktop set to sync my PPC, and a location on my internal LAN.
My laptop syncs that same location on my LAN (but via FTP, rather then a
file share), but in the event my FTP server is offline, it uses it's own
internal DB instead.
This is one of the very few applications that appears to properly sync
between three or more locations using files as a data transport, rather
then needing a direct connection between them.
