Meeting attendees on E71?

Hi

Is there any software that will let me see who has arranged a meeting and who are the attendees on the E71? I have tried Mail for Exchange, Roadsync and Seven yet none of these seem to have this function. I believe Blackberry Connect did, so presumably it is possible? Is there any reason why none of these applications provide this? As a corporate user this is probably the one additional function that would make me encourage users to get the E71 over a blackberry, which unfortunately I may have to go back to.

Do previous versions of BB Connect work on E71?

Thanks

Didnt get it...but Nokia Chat let you know where is your Friends now by using with the built in GPS and Maps. if this is what you need.

At present, you cannot initiate a meeting request from your phone. You can however, reply to a request from your phone. Maybe Nokia will implement this sorely missing feature in future versions of mail for exchange. Even version 2.7 doesn't have it and I miss it too.

What I am after is being able to go into the calendar and see who else has been invited to a meeting. Would also like to be able to invite others to ameeting, and be able to forward or reply from the calendar. This is basic enterprise functionality.

Strangely have discovered that using Papyrus as a calendar this picks up the attendees, so this data is synced, Nokia just chooses not to display it - very irritating.

The ideal solution was the BB connect but there seems no way for this to work on the E71. A real shame as this is a great device but am seriously considering giving it up for a Bold.
