Hi! This might be a faq. Unfortunatly I found in the net only awnsers from 1 year ago. So my infomation might be outdated. I want to buy a new smartphone. Initialy I was thinking of a WM 7 phone because i expect the best sync workflow with MS Outlook. To my information/suprise it seems like a direct sync with outlook (which used to work with WM 6.5) is not possible anymore. You always need a web-based service like exchange server or hotmail account. Althrough these services are free of charge, I simply don't want to send my personal data to such a service. Are the now tools which a allow a direct sync between Outlook and phone via USB. Which phone OS is best for this? I'm willing to spend some $ for such a feature. My requirements: - Sync of: Calendar, Kontacts, Tasks (including categories!) - Sync of 1 Phone with 2 PCs (private and buisness) Thank you & best regards, Bernd
