Hi Lawench
Take a look at PhatNotes, you can find it at Handango's web site
(www.handango.com). One of its versions - the Standard I think - seems to
synchronize with Outlook. I have downloaded the trial of the Professional
version (which also has a specific applicaiton in the Desktop) and it seems
quite powerful. Se4ems to work auite well on WM5, too bad it does not have
the option of sending notes as SMS, which is something I am looking for!
Good luck
Pedro
