In this case, what we are pushing for is to use a Tomboy-specific
online service for syncing your notes, and then to use Tomdroid on
your Android device.  This is still work-in-progress, but I hope it
will all be ready by the time Tomboy 1.2 is released in March.

Right now you can use Canonical's proprietary Ubuntu One service to
sync your notes to the cloud, and soon we will be releasing Tomboy
Online, which is just a hosted instance of our AGPL Snowy software.
This means that anyone with the desire to host their own personal
Tomboy Online could do so.  Other online services like Midgard are
also compatible with Tomboy's web synchronization.

With both of these services, you should be able to browse your notes
from any web browser on any device.  But there is a branch of Tomdroid
which supports synchronization with these services, and hopefully that
will be merged for release soon.

As for the rest of your post, I really don't know anything about
Evernote, and can't really help.  But other people on this list have
expressed interest in syncing with Evernote, so maybe there are some
people out there who already have ideas on how to implement
Tomboy<->Evernote sync.
