I have a new HTC Desire arriving on Monday. I have 7 days to assess it
as being suitable for my needs.

One thing I need to be able to do is to sync with my Outlook 2003 on my
computer. I am not fussed about synching emails but want to sync my
contacts, calendar and to do list. I have been used to doing this with
my present phone as it is a pocket pc.

I have read on this newsgroup that I will be able to download an app for
this but I am having difficulty locating one.

Does anyone use their HTC Desire (or similar phone) in such a way and
can advise me please?

TIA

Liz

This is a support newsgroup for Windows Mobile-based phones, and the Desire
is an Google Android-based phone.

Having said that...

Some Android-based phones include an app to sync with Outlook. If the
Desire doesn't, you can try CompanionLink, which, IIRC, just syncs your
local Outlook data with Google Calendar/GMail Contacts so they'll sync OTA
with the phone.

[I really hope this isn't the last post on this NG before it closes June
first! I'd hate for it go out with a whimper on an Android question!] ;)

I am sure it won't be. There will probably be a flurry of posts just
before the deadline. Thanks for your help. I will investigate
CompanionLink. Cheers
