MPT (Motorola Phone Tools) will sync Outlook and Outlook Express to your
phone via a cable. I don't think you can do it via Bluetooth, as Verizon
has crippled the Bluetooth implementation on the V710 and left out OBEX.
Verizon's new Motorola Bluetooth phone, the E815, is also crippled, but OBEX
can be restored with a seem edit. That allows syncing by Bluetooth.

Then it can. I had enabled OBEX before installing MPT, so I wasn't sure
whether it was required for syncing.
