Having got a new phone/mobile PC, I have wrestled with and eventually conquered the synchronisation software with Vista, and got phone and laptop talking to each other, only to learn that you have to have Outlook on the computer to synchronise the contacts and diary. (Obviously vital.)
You would think you could synchronise the Windows calendar on your computer with the phone, but no – its clearly a plan to make you buy Outlook (which I don’t want for email since I’m a Gmail devotee).
(I’m not the only one to be angry!)
Grrr… do I allow Microsoft to blackmail me (90-odd quid), or work out an elaborate workaround… probably involving manual double entry and relying on Google calendar – which means I have to trust that the 3G is always working?
