SWEET! A repalcement Calendar that kicks PI adn AF ass!

http://www.odysseyinc.com/Software/On-Schedule/FRAMESET_Remote_ROSSync_index.htm
I am so looking forward to trying this.. It supports Public Folders on Exchange Server over the DAM INTERNET! Finally..
8) Now you can have multiple folders and Contacts and Calendars and just about every ddam thing you can use in Outlook 2003 with an Exchange server... Even Outlook Small BUsiness Manager.
I do not think the program can dial from the Contacts, (when I tried it a few months ago it could not), but I think it is on their list of things to do.
Pocket Informant and Agenda Fusion SUCK after trying this.
A reply from them, "ROSSync was developed primarily for the Enterprise user. The price for ROSSync for up to 25 users is $1,200 and it includes 5 user licenses of Pocket On-Schedule."
Dam.. I was hopeing it was affordable! :roll:

HTML mail with exchange server

I've got WM6 (faria real thing) and the option to switch to HTML from plain text is grayed out in the pocket outlook options. Is this one of the features that requires exchange 2007 to work? Anyone else been able to get html working in poutlook?

Ah another reason to upgrade. Thanks
I confirrm that....
Yep.... I can confirm that. I had to upgrade to Exch 2k7 at home after I upgraded my wizard to WM6. no HTML email with 2k3. Honestly though, HTML email is nice but if this is the only reason you need/want 2k7 you might wanna do a bit more research first. High hardware reqs and disaster recovery is a pain.
Especially with the need for x64 hardware! Huge expendure!!
@ doedoe
Yeah... I mean on my home env I am running everything on a late Athlon64FX with 3GB of RAM. So far, so good but I am only serving up AD, exchange, and Web goodness for 9 people. Beyond that, anything at the enterprise level will require a whole new server inf. for the most part.
This is the reason that we are still on Exch 2k3 here at work with XOsoft. Clustering got a whole lot better with 2k7 but man, expensive as all he*(*.
If you have WM6....
And live enabled...
Get a free 2 gb hotmail live account and have free uncomplicated access to
HTML Goodness
Less hasseles and expense!

As a workarround you can use IMAP to connect to exchange 2003 and have HTML mail. I use it that way and it works perfect for me.

NEED: Push-Mail Service that has Exchange 2007

I have been searching all over ... no luck. Anyone know of a push-mail Provider that has exchange 2007 aka html-emails for WM6 support? I would be happy to pay for that...
Hi Pencilcase,
You can try Mail2web.com
I´ve been an user and they are now using Exchange 2007!
And the best thing is that you can have all for FREE!
Regards.
actually they dont use 2007 check the details on the accounts its all exchange 2003 sp2
Pencilcase is right. I do use mail2web myself and do not get html emails.
As stated above, they mail2web currently uses exchange 2003 sp2.
Give it time and maybe they upgrade will come.
planning
I am running exchange2007 now..
And the search funktion rocks.. on my mobile.
I am planning to rollout exchange 2007 in a datacenter (i am a freelance systemadministrator) and sell accounts.
Starting from 119 euro a year (200 Mb mailbox)
179 euro a year (600MB mailbox)
279 euro a year (1,5 gig mailbox)

liveoffice.com has Exchange 2007 and they use Secure Computing IronMail for spam control.
sherweb.com according to their press release http://sherweb.com/en-usd/page_exchange1010.html says everyone will have an upgrade to 2007 after it's released. Just make sure it's up and running right now. They also throw in 200MB of SharePoint hosting and 100MB of public folders. According to a sales rep I emailed they use Barracuda for spam control.
IronMail and Postini won Gartner's magic quadrant for controlling spam. Postini is a hosted service while IronMail is maintained on site. http://www.securecomputing.com/index.cfm?skey=1608
So far liveoffice.com is the only one to mention they partner with Secure Computing. I've been searching for Exchange or IMAP providers that use either Postini or IronMail.
Yep! You are right for sure! I haven't noticed they are using 2003!

WM6 with Exchange 2007
I have an unlimited storage account on http://www.exchangemailhosting.com hosted by Exchange 2007. My WM6 MB Edition rocks with this service (HTML mail, search mailbox, search contact, etc).

Maybe it is something the ROM cooker did, but I'm running WM6 MBE and I have HTML email on my IMAP account. So why would it be any different on an Exchange 2003 account? Or is it just a cooker bonus?
I'm talking about push-email not a normal pop/imap account ....

Windows Vista features to sync

IS there a way to sync windows calendar, mail, contacts with the pda ?
I've been very busy with this, but eventually I installed Office 2007. My guess i that it only works whit outlook..
Outlook? Yes, read documentation

Does anybody knows if microsoft is working on this issue or simply they want that we pay for Outlook?
I can't belive that they don't let us use the built-in calendar/contact!
Any third-part software?
It is meaningless!
Allmost all PDAs that are being sold on the planet comes with version of Microsoft Outlook so no need to buy it!
And Yes it is very sad that you can't sync with Vista's internal programs! They are wey easier to use!

Mine is Outlook 2002!
I don't think it will run on Vista.. But even if it runs.. I can't understand why i have to install that USELESS (and bloatware..) software!
I would use Vista becuse, as you said, it's much more easy!
So why have i instal Outlook (old version) if there is a "mini" (???) outlook built-in?
i guess they consider people who buy this kind of device would actually not care much for price or for outlook since outlook is standard for evey office out there.. have you ever seen a business rely on whatever comes with windows and not ms office? anyway i agree with all of you, there should be some way or 3rd party app that syncs regular windows stuff..
ms is never money satisfied!

LOL
So, why they make a camera phone? Businessman can buy 10 megapixel camera.
Why they make pocket pc? Businessman can buy UMTC!
So, sorry, but i can not agree on this theory.
We have a good PIM on Vista. What I ask is to USE IT.
So, is there anyone who knows something about this issue?
Any from the betatesters?
The problem is that Vista was released prior to WM6
The solution is:

Yes i know.. but we can read:
Microsoft® Outlook® 2003 and Microsoft® Outlook® 2007 messaging and collaboration clients are required for synchronization of e-mail, contacts, tasks and notes to a Personal Computer.
Click to expand...

So we can understand that:
-Microsoft don't care about calendar.. LOL
-"Allmost all PDAs that are being sold on the planet comes with version of Microsoft Outlook" but it is too old, it wold not run on Vista (Microsoft says it, not me).
So, i repeat: anyone knows if Microsoft is working on sync between PDA and Vista PIM?
Is there a mail, a forum, where i could ask this simply question to Microsoft?
Thank you.

Can anyone make Pocket MSN cab ?

I just lost 80 people off my list!
Stay away from it at all costs! damn stupid idiots at M$!!!
All i did was logon and when i logged on the PC i see 80 people missing!!
Please if you have a CAB file for Pocket MSN that comes from T-Mobile SDA for Installation, ill be VERY gratefull!!
Here's Windows Live Messenger for WM5/6. If you mean the MSN Messenger application included in WM5 ROM then it's already in your phone as part of the operating system. Check the windows folder for the executable...
@NiTroGenious, dear god NO! i do NOT want Live Messenger! it just cost me 80 people off my list! its horrible! all that contact syncing disaster!
I want MSN Messenger and yes i know it comes with WM5, but i put WM6 and it does not come with it, That is why i asked if someone has or can make a CAB for installing it. Since i couldn't find it anywhere on the net
Sorry for the misunderstanding. Anyway, if you don't want the "Windows Live! features", why don't you try an alternative MSN client, such as IM+?
Windows Live! features, killed 80 people off my MSN list
IM+ and the rest of the others, cost money. And MSN Messenger on the SDA is all ill need if i can port it to WM6 from the WM5.
Thank you for trying
if you used WM6 Perfect Edition, try to use IE, I add an Windows Messenger Mobile in IE favorite, it is a wap version, it works well when you only need text chat.
@andot, i did not see it, propably cause when i synced the mobile, my favorites replaced the ones you provided
I still prefer an independed solution, is there no way to integrate instmsgr from the WM5 rom?
PS: Just wanna say awesome job on WM6 andot! seriously! brought new life to my mobile!
PS2: I Just found the PERFECT solution! FREEWARE and can logon to: Yahoo, MSN, ICQ and GoogleTalk!!!
I am shocked no one told me about it before, check it out - http://www.octro.com/index.php
PS3: Here's another free one which also gives you SIP! http://www.fring.com/download

There is this one from Nitrogen HERE DownloadPocketMSN_wm5_by_nitrogen You probably know him
Also do a search for "Install_Pocket_MSN.exe" there are a few cabs around. I downloaded it and it installed fine for me. All though, I just can't get MSN to work...
And finally, as an alternate try: www.palringo.com Its what I'm using now, free, pretty flexible, still in development. So far works great for me. Audible sounds with every message you recieve, can log into multiple acounts, multiple PM's, can use on Desktop, can send voice and picture messages... try it out, Not bad at all, and it qualifies for your FREE request Good Luck mate.
@Nitrogen: Good to see you around mate!
