N80 stops synch process when hitting calendar item number 467 of 686

Hi all,
I have a weird problem that I cannot find a workaround for. Anybody seen it?
This is what happens:

1. I connect the phone using usb cable (or bluetooth, doesn't matter)
Phone is recognized and ready to use
2. I start the synchronization process. Things go well until I get to the contacts. During the synch process I see a text saying "sending x of 686 calendar".
3. When I hit calendar number 467, the synch process aborts. The phone says "system error". The log in PC Suite says "The Synchronisation has been
Terminated! PC Sync could not update the data to the mobile phone. "
as well as "PC Sync has encountered a problem and has terminated the synchronisation."

I have recently upgraded the phone firmware, successfully. If I remember correctly, I even synchronized the phone with outlook *after* the upgrade.

The problem does not appear if I click the "settings" button in PC suite and uncheck the "calendar" check box. So it is definately tied to calendera and calendar only.

Anyone have an idea of how to solve this? I would be grateful for any hints. Thanks

I had something similar a while back. Solved the problem by deleting everything from the phone calendar and letting Outlook write everything back.

Don't see why it shouldn't work the other way around if that suits better, either.

Or, you could try altering the settings to allow the write to only go ahead in one direction, then the other. That should overwrite the entry which is causing the problem.
