hi!

are there better & easier ways now to sync the best (my opininion) PIM app (GPE PIM) with my Outlook? Can GPE PIM be synchronized using the SyncML protocol? I think if I install a SyncML server I can then sync it with GPE PIM & Outlook (I've used some plugin to do this with some plugin).

Theroretically opensync does the trick, in practice the current release of the opensync maemo package doesn't have a working gpe plugin. Also it seems to be discontinued....

i suspect the opensync stuff got stopped because people got working google sync, and either had accounts there or was happy to sign up...

interesting... does google synchronize contacts?

iirc, no. only calendar...

altho i think someone was working on contact sync as well. cant say i have payed much attention tho, as i dont feel like making a account on google...

its a pity, especially as opensync looked really promising

indeed, opensync is interesting, but it really needs a gui to shine.

also, as one can also use opensync on a linux desktop to sync GPE with kontact (kde) or evolution, its basically only outlook thats "out of the loop".

if opensync can use SyncML then Outlook is maybe in-loop as once (With HTC Universal long time ago) I've used a plugin that did syncML. (it had a pair under WinMo)

..and.. I don't want to create a google account, too.. If I will use SyncML I will setup my own server - I don't want to give out of my control my contact list...
