I used this on my Mogul and it was great BUT because I used a third party SMS program that didnt use the Text Message database it did work well with synching the text messages.
And when it comes to the contacts it only syncs names, numbers, and email, no birthdays or things like that
WOuld have been great for me after i did the ROM update that I recently did. Used outlook instead.
Everything else is great. Pictures and Videos show up instantly it seems.
Although we don’t show all the fields supported in an Outlook contact, we do store them so that if you move from one phone to the next, all contact details go with you. We plan on enriching the contact details down the road.
There is a similar service, called Upvise, which enables you to do the same thing (contacts, notebooks, shopping list synchronization and backup betweem the phone and your web account) and is free, but works also on any Java, Symbian or Google Android in addition to Windows Mobile.
