I tried CompanionLink and, while it seems to work fine, I hated having to 
connect the USB cable. Also, I found it very cumbersome to have 2-way 
synchronization. To do so I had to sync on the phone, then connect the USB, and 
then sync on the computer, and then, again, sync on the phone. The first was to 
get updates from the phone and stage them. The second was to update the 
computer with the staged updates and stage updates from the computer on the 
phone. The third was to update the phone with the staged updates from the 
computer. 

Just too convoluted. So I found another way that allows my updates to be done 
wirelessly - using google calendar, google calendar sync, and gmail (for 
contacts). I wish I could sync my contacts back to my Outlook but the contact 
sync program caused me serious problems on my computer and I ended up 
uninstalling it.

Greetings everyone, 

So, as the debate of switching to Android shifts on, I’m going to pose a 
couple questions as someone who just switched to WebOS from Palm even after 
having tried Android. 

I’m wondering if any of you have used one of the three sync programs out 
there: Mark/Space’s Missing Sync, CompanionLink’s Google Sync, or Chapura’s 
PocketMirror. If so, what do you think is the best? I posted the question 
to PreCentral’s forums as a Poll. I’m doing this because I’m trying to 
figure out why people prefer one over the other. Right now, PocketMirror 
is winning the poll I posted. 

Second, have any of you tried using QuickOffice with Classic? I’m not 
horribly impressed with the Docs to Go reader on the Pre and, honestly, have 
never been a fan of Docs to Go anyway. I liked WordSmith best, but that’s 
certainly not going to be developed more and it won’t run in Classic. If 
you have, what do you think of it? How does it work. Secondly, if you 
have, have you tried using FontBucket with Classic? That’s what I’m really 
wanting. I have a specialized font that shows up as boxes in D2G and hope I 
can read it in Quick Office with FontBucket running. 

Thanks! 

Michael
