RL 4920 Phone - USB Questions

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

I am considering getting the Sanyo RL 4920 phone soon. Here are a
couple of questions I have not been able to find the answers to on the
web or in the newsgroups.
1) Is it true that you can charge your 4920 from your pc using the USB
cable?
2) if so, does the laptop need to be turned on, or will it just charge
from the LT battery?
3) does the pc/laptop require any software to perform the charging
function? I'd like to be able to hook it up to any computer I happen
to be on and have the phone charging.
4) I would appreciate hearing any comments about the good or bad of
sync'ing an outlook calendar with the phone.
5) lastly, are there any good 'non-commercial' web sites that have
good information on this phone? (too many sites just selling the
phone and accessories, lame information).

Thanks
Bill
