This is my last Dell Purchase. They screwed my on the specs on the 2005FPW monitor and lied about it (does not do PBP or PIP with DVI and VGA) .... now this.

I have never been able to synch my calendar events for any that have text. Mail, notes, etc work ... but I need my calendar entries. There is more than dates in there (conf call #s, attachments, etc). This took forever to figure out why some synched and others did not. Plus I also have the frequent ActiveSynch Failures and requiring Soft Resets.

Right when I acknowledged this Dell said it was a know problem and would have a fix at the end of October. I keep on trying to contact them wasting many hours and no result. Last time I called, after loading A06 .. I was told I would now need to call a Pay per service phone number. And if I paid, they could help me. WHAT !!!!!!!!
I finally asked for a refund and was told that I was outside the window and that there was nothing that they could do. I get strung along all this time and left with this. So ... this is my last Dell product.

OK .... Sorry about the long rant.

I have Windows XP on my corporate machine, with Outlook. Pretty straightforward, and worked like a charm with my Axim X50v. This device has been a nightmare with the same set up.

Anyone have any ideas ? Looks like I am stuck with this thing ... I really do not use it now since it is not worth loading up any apps or configuration since they get wiped with the numberous hard resets.

I have tried almost every suggestion I could find (Detect and Repair, uninstall and remove all ActiveSynch references from registry, etc).

I am beyond frustrated here .....
