I don't know if anyone else is having issues with this setup, but I am. It seems the calender, and contacts, in Outlook will only synch appointments and contacts if you have checked a category, such as business, personal, and etc. If you don't give it a category, although Activesynch will act like its synching all of the items and say its synched when "finished" it won't have transferred the items from my laptop to my Axim. As soon as I go into each missing appointment and add the category it synchs the item instantly. Its a real pain to have to go in and manually fix everything. I haven't found a rule or switch to set in any of the software on either the Axim or MS Office to correct this. The "old" Office (2000) didn't care if you had checked a category or not, it just synched it. If I had known this was going to happen I wouldn't have upgraded to the new suite.
