Hi Folks, I've just bought the misses a 515 for xmas and have a question regarding our home PC configuration.
At work, I happily use my Palm with Microsoft Outlook using the Pocket Mirror conduits. This sync's my Contacts, Calendar, ToDo's, Notes, etc.
However, at home we only have Microsoft Outlook Express. I believe that Pocket Mirror will happily use the email conduit but that sync'ing Contacts, etc will not be possible.
With the standard Palm softwre, the only option as far as I see it is that Outlook Express is used for email and the Palm Desktop for Contacts, Calendar, ToDo's, etc. In practice I can see that this isn't going to be very sweet as the data isn't directly integrated as it is with full the Outlook application.
Has anyone found a viable alternative setup for home pda use? Did you buy different conduit software? Use alternative Palm software? or end up using different PC software?
Am I missing the point or am I barking? (answers on a postcard...)
PS: I've searched previous Threads but cannot seem to get a suitable answer...
