Sorry to keep pestering you guys with so many questions but can any of you N8 owners tell me if it still has the Sync app that allows syncing with a syncML server and also whether Nokia has finally included a way to schedule the sync (hourly etc)?
SyncML is crucial to me so I can't get an N8 if it's not there. I used to use Swim to schedule the syncing on my N95 but I cannot see a Symbian^3 compatible version anywhere. I know timed syncs are built into the SE Vivaz so I'm hoping that Nokia has also included it now.
Short version: yes on all counts.
Long version: the sync app is still there and now has 'sync scheduling' as an option. That allows for Manual only; Many times per day; Once a day; Every 2 days; Every week; Once a month.
The 'Many times per day' option breaks down to peak and off-peak times with options for Every 15 minutes; Every hour; Every 2 hours; Every 4 hours; Every 12 hours.
Quite what differentiates peak and off-peak is not clear, but it appears all the options are there.
Hope that helps.

Thanks Jon, that certainly does help.
Now if I could just figure out the impact of the power management issue I might be able to get my order in...
