Hi all,
I want to find the least expensive phone that I can sync with Outlook. So I can have access to my Contacts and Calendar. Can anyone recommend something? I'm leaning towards Cingular or Sprint as a provider, and if possible would like to purchase the phone from them.
Thanks in advance!

The service works over GPRS so i dont mess with cables (incidentally, a friend has a Motorola v300 from t-mobile and according to motorola her phone should be able to do over the air synchronization but t-mobile had the phones delivered with the sync option disabled, as we discovered - yet another example of one service provider limiting the abilities others have with similar phones and different providers - i have a v551 from cingular. But I digress and risk a full on rant).
HTH, zroue
p.s dont know much about the individual phones out there at present, sorry.

Sync to Outlook
Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I keep hearing about all the hassles people are getting from various providers. It's disheartening, isn't it?
Ideally I'd like to actually sync the phone to Outlook directly. There may be software available that gives you "phone management" functionality, so you can enter data via your computer and then download to the phone, but I'd have to figure out a way to get the data from Outlook to that software. I'd like to avoid that extra step if I can.
Thanks again. Hopefully someone will make a recommendation.
