I know this has been discussed before on the forums, but I couldn't find any resolution of the issue and was hoping maybe someone has managed to find one:

The problem: The p910 happily supports multiple phone numbers of the same type (mobile, home phone etc) per contact. I have many contacts with up to 8 mobile numbers (people who travel and use local SIM cards in different countries) plus a handful of other numbers like landline phone, fax etc. I can sync with Apple OSX Address book fine... it seems the vCard format copes with syncing whatever fields you choose to add.
However I need to sync with Outlook 2003 on Windows and according to this post:

...and my own experience only 1 or 2 numbers of the same phone type get synced with Outlook, the others just disappear.

So I'm wondering if anyone has managed to find any way around this whatsoever, including if necessary the use of additional or alternative third-party sync or contacts software? I know I could go through and separate them all into multiple contact cards like "Dave Smith Mobile 1", "Dave Smith Mobile 2" etc but that's not an acceptable solution to me.

Many thanks in advance,

Ben
