Syncing with an PC Outlook client is carried out using the standard sync that came with the bestie... E.g. the PC Suite etc.
Works fine. (if thats what you were asking...
No no. I know that normally you use the PC Suite. What I was asking was based on something I read elsewhere, is it possible to sync with Activesync on a local PC with a standalone version on Outlook, or whether you can only sync with an Exchange SP2 server?
Also, nobody else had intermittent PC Suite connection issues as per my previous post then?

What do people seem to get for battery life? With Exchange ActiveSync on I barely get 12 hours of usage. That's just plain awful compared to a Blackberry.
Also, the performance on the phone can get awfully sluggish. Latency can drop to 3-5 seconds (you click a button and count to 3 before you get a response). The web app still loads quick, it's just a general user interface issue. Anyone have any ideas? To draw a comparison, my BB is always immediately responsive.

Just updated mine. Very happy atm, no major bugs, a bit slow here and there but ok. Low battery warning, but not followed by shut down.
Take it the update fixed you issue when trying to open web pages then?

@Coxy
Sounds like you need to recalibrate your battery by discharging and fully charging using mains supply a few times.

I'm astonished SE can release something like this in the hopes of competing with RIM. The battery life and latency alone have me thinking I should toss the M600i. It's no surprie that I heard (from an internal SE guy) that the sales are sluggish - they are well below forecast right now.
We can hope SE is reading this and plans to update the firmware to address these issues. But with slow sales, maybe they will abandon the product. Let's see how much effort they put into it before they arrive at a conclusion.

Any suggestions on how to do that then? Obviously the vitual COM ports don't appear in device manager when the phone isn't connected. Alternatively are you suggesting removing the COM port when the phone is connected and then doing a scan for hardware changes?
Just had an idea though - I might try "reserving" the COM port in the COM Ports tab of the Phone Monitor options in control panel.

Sales, as in retail sales of simfree handsets? It's only just come out!
If you mean by networks taking it up, then that may be different. It's uniquely placed *beneath* a potentially high-selling handset (P990i), it in itself the successor of the P910i. It may be that the networks see the P990i as the bigger seller and don't want to muddle consumer choice.
In any respect, the phones only been out for about 2 weeks, how many sales were projected?
