syncing w/ Outlook Business Contact Manager - iPhone 3G

Jakeyw · 01-16-2008, 04:24 PM

I am interested in buying either an iPhone or an iPod Touch, but first want to make sure it will be able to perform the functions I need. I am using Windows XP pro sp2, with Outlook 2007 with Business Contact Manager (which I know many people do not have or use). Does anyone know if there will be a problem syncing my business contacts to an iPhone or iPod Touch as a result?
Thanks!

Great! Thanks alot!

Next Q: There is a $40 price difference between the "new" iPod Touch and the old ones in stock at Tekserve. I understand that there is a $20 update that is needed for the old ones, but is there any other difference between the two?

The diff is the new ones today have that update shipping with the new ones. So the old ones have to pay the $20 which I think sucks.

It does - its one of several reasons that I will not be switching to a Mac. They seem to have to upgrade their OS every 15 minutes.

But back to the Touch - there is no hardware difference between old & new? Better screen? better touch recognition or anything?
