Post an article in two (or more) sections

I have looked around the forum and couldn’t find info on this issue.

Here is my problem:

One of my sites sells screen protectors for mobile devices. When we started, pretty much a phone was a phone and a PDA was a PDA. Now PDA’s are phones and phones can be gaming devices. Right now what we are doing is creating multiple, identical articles for each device that would go in two sections.

Example:
Treo 700 would go in “pocket pc”, “palm os”, and “phones” sections. As is I need to put together three articles. Annoying.

I am wondering if there is a way to do something like rss_unlimited_categories with sections and only need one article.

Any help here would be fantastic.

As far as I know – and I’m a relative newcomer to using TxP – Sections are pretty much autonomous as regards their content, that is you would need to post the article directly to each section you wanted it posted to. (unless there is a plugin I’m not aware of – and lots of those get made :) )
