Speaking of syncing with iPhone, here's a question.
We run exchange 2003 and we're behind a firewall. When I'm at work,
and I sync, all the contacts come over onto the iPhone.
Problem is that when I'm on the road, if I sync, all the contacts on
the iPhone disappear after I sync.
Two things: I thought the phone was suppose to prompt you if more than
#% of your data is changed. Second, why does this happen? Is it
because I'm not behind the firewall? I'm not sure what would happen
if I VPN into work, then sync. But given how slow my network is on
the road, this would be miserable.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

of music from iTunes, I won't use it.

Although, I've developed for them ALL (android, iphone, BB)... so
I've had them all, and still after three years nothing touches the
iPhone.
It will be interesting to see how long Apple allows the syncing of
the iTunes material though... PalmPre is doing it now, and the word
on the street is Apple will put a stop to it soon (not legally, but
from a technical standpoint).
