I was similarly gun-shy.  On my Centro, though, as with my 755p, I did
sync with the beta Desktop for Vista, and sync'd the rest of Outlook
(tasks and notes) along with Handyshopper, and, later, Filez,
KeyCaps600, D2G and a few games.  All seems to be well.

I don't know about iSilo and Snappermail.  I don't need Snapper, even
though I own it, since Versamail can sync with the rest of my
non-Exchange email accounts just fine.

Cheers,
Don

Subject: [Treo] To sync or not to sync

Starting out with a brand new baby, I'm being cautious about keeping
her clean and pretty.  (We're talking pre-first-drop 755p here :)

Upon receipt, I charged up the phone, activated Versamail, and was
able to sync my Outlook email, contacts, and calendar over the air. 
My IT guy forces a 4-digit password on the unit to make this work, but
yay -- it *does*.

So now my question is whether I want to possibly interfere with this
by adding another sync.  I'm currently "hiding" my 43 folders as a
Sunday event, and my shopping lists as a Saturday event, so these sync
automatically with the calendar.  I'm checking my non-outlook email
accounts over the web; this seems to work pretty well.  I'm keeping my
task list short and putting my "maybe somedays" into a untimed Friday
calendar event.

I'm also minimizing recurring events, and I definitely know better
than to accept meeting invites in Outlook (one thing that killed
Versamail the last time I tried it).  I don't know what exactly
interfered and killed my 755, but I guess I'm gun shy now.

So can I survive without my previously must-have apps, like
HandyShopper and iSilo and Snappermail?  Has anyone else tried this?
