Well, a couple things make that less attractive to me. My home PC would be
on all of the time and I'd have to map a port to connect to my PC OTA. And I
wouldn't get the AUTD function. The next thing is then, I'd have all of my
personal contacts I want on the phone also on the exchange server.
Ideally, I would have contacts on the exchange server (some with a business
category set) and have contacts on my home PC in my pst (some with a
personal category set) I want my contacts in a PST because it's my master
list of personal contacts in case I change phones or do a hard reset. That
way my phone will have all of the contacts I may need while keeping personal
and business seperate.
And for the calendar, I want to have my appts in my pst so I can use the
hotmail sync utility so that my free/busy info is available from the web.
Thanks Rob
