Why is it that everyone has given up on synchronization via gprs since 2003/2004.

The current active services i could find are

https://www.goosync.com/
https://zyb.com/
https://www.o-sync.com/
https://www.mobical.net/mobical/main/ (Best in my opinion)
http://www.scheduleworld.com/tg/cal/day.jsp

http://mightyphone.com/ (trial)
http://www.3molen.com/ (trial)

Goosync is the new kid in the block which was initiated by google. So its future should be promising. Goosync synchronizes your mobile phone to google calender. Dosent support recurring events for now. Work is also underway to sync contacts, notes and tasks too.

ZYB has a cool interface and sync's contacts and calender. Dosent support recurring events for now. Work is also underway to sync notes and tasks too.

O-Sync synchs calender,contacts, notes and tasks but i couldnt test it as server was unavailable.

Scheduleworld performed the syncing ok but has a poor interface and i also had problems of loosing the synced data while i tried to edit an event on the website.Scheduleworld also supports syncing of contacts, calender, notes and tasks. Although the synced notes are nowere to be found on the website.

Mobical was the best of the lot i tested and it synced my contacts, calender, notes and tasks.It also supports syncing of bookmarks but sonyericsson phones dont support that. It also had a good interface although not much user friendly.

Tested Mobical, ZYB, Scheduleworld and Goosync successfully via Airtel MobileOffice GPRS connection.

Post any other active synchronization services you know off here.

Scheduleworld seems to work fine for me between Outllok and M600 etc.
Give it a try.
(Some of the servers you mentioned don't have Outlook Plugin)

Try www.4smartphone.net. Very good and they back end an Exchange server to support mail, calendar, and a few other services.

It's a very good and cheap hosted exchange service but doesn't work with k800-unless someone has a hint?

Which one are you talking about? All SyncML services work fine with most modern sony ericsson phones. the problem, if any should be with your servic provider. As i mentined in my earlier post i successfully synced with 3 or 4 of the services i have listed.

4smartphone

Sony Ericsson support claim that it may not work as SyncML can have different interpretations. This certainly seems the case as it works fine with my S700. I've never been able to get my k800 to work with mobical either.

o-sync has some issues with K800i or more precisely syncml 1.2 - yes
I'm one of the test handsets it would seem As I have an inclusive MB
bundle it's ok !!!

just been playing with mobical and my k800i - that's sweet. Everything
sent and received, no problems and the settings can be OTA'd - nice

tried out ZYB.com today and the experience has been really good enough,though it went right only the second time...the interface is really really intuitive and cool...very user friendly as well!
