Hi!

You can try this (http://gforge2.uwc.ac.za/projects/ziggis/), but it seems  
that there is not very much going. I think the problem in connecting  
PostGIS and ArcGIS is in the ArcObjects workspaces to handle the  
Datasource. As a Workaround you can use a tempoprary shapefile like pgArc  
or you can setup a WMS. A WFS should also work, althought i didn't test  
it. Or you can use something other than ArcGIS. Our way at the moment is  
to separate workingareas as a shapefile and update them, when finished.
