Outlook 2003 and Pocket PC

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

Hi, Planning to move from a Palm to a pocket PC.
Presently using Outlook 2003 on my portable.
What is the best version of Microsof pocket software to synchroniz
Outlook 2003.

You aren't going to have any issues with any of the current crop of PPCs
with WM2003SE or even those one back that have WM2003 on them. They all come
with a copy of Outlook 2002 (XP) but work just fine with the 2003 you
already have loaded. The Outlook provided is for those that don't have it
already, or are using a previous version.

All the software necessary to sync your Pocket PC with Outlook 2003 is
already included on your PDA and in ActiveSync 3.7 and later.

You are going to find that the category color is not going to transfer on
PPCs either. There are some very good third party PIM extensions that will
provide that functionality though. You might take a look at Pocket Informant
and Agenda Fusion to see what they have to offer. There is also a wonderful
program, Pocket Breeze that extends that sort of functionality right to the
Today screen for quick access.
