emptying Outlook before selling?

Since I intend selling my old x50 (just bought an x51v to replace it) I'd like to delete any private folders such as the Outlook calendar. Anyone know if there is a way to do that whithout having to hard reset the device? I can't seem to find the relevant folder.

I know there's a feature in Pocket Informant that allows this. You should be able to do this using the trial.

It would be a cleaner unit if you did do a hard reset. Any applications you wanted to transfer to the new owner could be just reinstalled.

Sk tools will do it... but personally I'd hard reset.

I'd also do a hard-reset.
That way ALL of your information would be erased, even any information that you might forget to erase :)

In addition to the hard reset, be sure to manually clear out BIS.

Yup, anyone can dump the BIS with a small utility. I would repeatedly store the same file into the BIS until it fills up, delete them, then do it again and delete. That will be sure to wipe out any of your data that would have been in there.
Then hard reset.
