Best vCard mobile phone support and syncronization

[bonavox]

Hi,
I have some questions regarding vCard (and vCalendar) support on mobile
phones.

What of the most available mobile phones (Nokia, SonyEricsson, Samsung,
Siemens...) have the widest vCard/vCalendar support? My goal is to
syncronize my Outlook contacts to a mobile phone. On the phone, I want
to see (preferably) all the properties by choice. I also want to
insert/edit any object and the property on the phone and sync back to
Outlook.

Some of the properties I miss is full address support, IM address,
company, job title, birthday and all the other most used properties you
find if you open a Outlook contact or calendar. Far as I have
experienced, the vCard support is very limited on the models I've
tried. I often see that I loose properties if I syncronize back to the
mobile, the view on the phones is very limited and so on.

As for the default sync programs (the quality and reability vary a lot)
I can accept using a third party solution. Oh, I wish they all could
use ActiveSync.

Take a look: http://www.imc.org/pdi/pdiproddev.html


Anyone got some experience with vCard and vCalendar on mobile phones?


Kind regards,
Bonavox

Hello!

Full address support is available in Symbian-based smartphones (Nokia 6680,
N70, N90, 9300; Siemens SX1, SonyEricsson P900, P910i )- you can add several
phone nubmers, job title, wireless pager and DTMF field, contact photos.
Only IM field isn't available in these phones.

We can suggest to have a look at Oxygen Phone Manager II for Symbian OS
phones ( http://www.opm-2.com/symbian/ ). Using our program you can manage
various contact details, export the phonebook to and import from Microsoft
Outlook, Windows Address book or .CSV format, import vCard files (including
multi-contact ones) and export your contacts to vCard format. Also you can
export your phonebook to RTF, DBF, HTML, XML, SYL or Data Interchange
format.

Same synchronization is available for Calendar and To-Do list section.

You can download Oxygen Phone Manager II for Symbian OS phones here:

This program also has preliminary 'pocket Outlook' phonebook support for
Microsoft Smartphone OS based smartphones and communicators.

We can also offer Oxygen Phone Manager II ( http://www.opm-2.com/opm2/ )
for 'none-smartphone' handsets from Nokia (phonebook, gallery, calendar and
To-Do list support) and Samsung (phonebook only) phones.

You can download Oxygen Phone Manager II trial version here:

We can also offer Oxygen Express ( http://www.oxygen-express.com/ ) for
'non-Symbian' Nokia and Mobiado phones: this smart utility allows to provide
full non-detailed backup, restore and erase for all of your phone's data,
including the phonebook.
