I am buying an Orange SPV M600 smartphone that uses Activesynch 4.0+.
My company only uses Activesych 3.7 and will not upgrade.
My current PDA (an Ipaq) uses the 3.7 perfectly to synch with my
office's Outlook.
If the SPv M600 fails to connect to my office's Outlook via the 3.7, is

there a way that I could synch contacts, calendar and tasks between the

M600 and the IPAQ - i.e. I first synch my Outlook to the Ipaq, using
Activesynch 3.7 and then somehow synch/copy the updated calendar,
contacts and tasks fromthe PDA to my smartphone)?
Thanks.
NH

I only know of sync systems between device and PC (or device and Exchange
Server).
To sync between 2 devices, you may need to install Outlook on your home
computer, along with AS 4.1. Then sync iPaq to home PC, then sync SPV to
home PC.

By the way: I believe that you should be able to sync either device direct
with the Exchange Server, if that has been configured for you.

That's correct. ActiveSync doesn't do device-to-device sync. You can beam
a contact or two between devices using Bluetooth or IR, but that's about it.
