@PDAMed, that is exactly the point. The p1i is NOT a serious business tool by any means, but a drain on productivity.
I really don't care how good it looks and what other good features it has, WLAN et al. Bottom line: its PIM software has a poor set of features, crashes, and doesn't provide adequate or reliable synching.
Unfortunately, there is no return policy here in India, I would have turned it back in in a flash. I could still do it and take a USD 150 hit, since the phone still has quite a reputation here in India. Just a matter of time before serious business users will learn to stay away from it.

I noticed when I installed the Active Sync that it gave me a brief message about disabling synching.
I would also like to sort this out. I sync my work account with active sync, but have no way of syncing with my laptop now.

Synching is an extremely serious issue, and the problem of duplicate contacts, calendar entries, and a failure to deal with recurring calendar entries adequately are problems that appear to have been around since 2003. SE seems to be making no attempt to address this serious database issue. Add to that the problems with alarm functionality, voice tags, etc. that many people are having, and the phone begins to resemble terrain with hidden landmines.
Business users cannot rely on Contacts and Calendar to keep important schedules and contact information up-to-date, safe and reliably accurate.
We need to petition SE immediately to address these issues. Users of a phone touted as a flagship business model can expect more than this. I can understand that users who are more interested in multimedia capabilities or Internet browsing are not particulary affected, but they have models other than the P1i to use. What good are these advanced features if one browses the Internet while missing an appointment that was never synched to the Calendar or whose alarm did not go off?
Any ideas on how to petition SE to fix these very serious issues and help SE come back on track with its business models?
Anil
P.S. Any tips on how to get paid by SE while doing so?
