Hi,

I am on the fence about ready to jump from Treo650 to E61. I have a question about outlook synch implementation under symbian and Nokia Suite.
I rely heavily on "categories" field to organize 1000+ contact in OL.

How does category field get mapped under Symbain/E61 ?

What is the method of efficiently sorting/organizing contacts ? (e.g. say want to display restaurant numbers only out of 1000 contact ?)

Do categories map from Outlook Calendar/TO DO items as well ?

How do Outlook Calendar notes get transferred to E61 ? i.e.
If there is a number in the notes section, can it be highlighted and called easily ?

TIA Andrew

I would say that you have highlighted the weakest features of the E61 - the S60 3rd edition calendar/todo is very simple eg. Calendar notes are not supported at all (what is described as a memo, is in fact just a title in Outlook terms). If that is important to you, you might want to stay on that fence (and hope that a 3rd party app arrives soon).
