v600 PIM data

Archived from groups: alt.cellular.motorola (More info?)

Hey all,

I have a question about using MS OUtlook and my v600 phone. I have
bluetooth on my PC, and noticed that there is a service for PIM data
provided by the phone. Can I synch data from Outlook to the phone using
this, or do I need to fork out $$ for the Motorola software to do that?

Cheers!

and also, MPT brings no windows when clicking on Calendar but rather
brings back Outlook 2003 instead...

Never tested but obviously, the main purpose of syncing is to get the
appointments from the PC to the phone with no effort rather than the
reverse option.
