Anything that makes life easier, I'm all for it. It's always good to have options.
Now...about the sync on the Pre... before I switch, I absolutely NEED to sync somehow (not wifi like Chapura 'cuz we don't have wifi at work, only LAN) with all facets of Outlook...calendar, contacts, tasks, and memos. It sounds like Palm still hasn't developed that solution yet. IMHO, they will lose potential buyers if they don't address that very critical need. Jim (sent via Palm Centro) ......
