Final information on Outlook-Sync problems:
Just for fun, I tried the the old XTNDConnectPC-software that came with the T610 (!). Guess what - sync works without a problem. Of course some of the new fields in the k700i are not supported but everything else gets transferred properly.
Baseline: I tested synchronisation with Outlook on W2k via Bluetooth-AND IR connection on 2 different PCs, with both a Belkin USB BT-dongle and a Logitech BT hub, with all firewalls off/on and with McAfee and Norton AntiVirus off/on. The phone gets recognized and connected, but using the SW that comes with the phone (SE SnycStation), it never worked.
Using the same configurations but the old XTNDConnectPC software, everything worked. For me it's clear now that the current version of the SE software sucks.

I got the K700i for only 7 hours and these are my first impressions:
1. Really nice screen. Bright and clear. Nice animated background, too.
2. I'm a little put off with the cover for the charging port but it does make the K700 look better.
3. I'm a concerned with the keys and how easily it might be scratched.
4. The T610 looks more professional than this one but I'm not complaining.
5. I like having MP3s as my ringtone. Disappointed with not being able to customize the message tone but I already knew about it so it's ok. Ring is also louder than the T610. I like.
6. I hold the K700 differently from the T610. I still haven't discern how it is. i think it'll take me some time to get use to it. I feel the K700 is faaaat.
7. Flawless connection via Bluetooth using Float's Mobile Agent and BluePhoneMenu for Mac.
8. SE finally allows me to customize the shortcuts on the joystick. No more annoying SE homepage.
9. How come SE insists on limiting users in finding an entry in the phonebook. This is my biggest gripe!
10. Menu structure has changed and I have yet to look around it.
11. Too bad SE didn't put an aluminum finish on the K700i. It would have looked sooooo fine.
12. There's no minute reminder for calls. I don't know why they removed it.
13. SMS is much much much faster than the T610. So's the menu.
Haven't tried the camera yet and I haven't encountered problems with the #2 key. I still have to play with the phone so I can make sure nothing is wrong with it. I have to review the complaints some had with their units.
I'll update this as soon as I am able.

Outlook sync-issue seems resolved. I installed Sync Station 1.2.9.1b which was put on the Web yesterday and suddenly everything worked.
Conclusion: wait 2 or 3 months before buying a brand new SE product.
