synchronizing outlook on two computers

[Guest]

I just bought a laptop and have installed outlook 2003 which is what I use on
my desktop. Is there a way to have the laptop automatically synch with my
desktop without having to copy the .pst files back and forth each time?

Jeff,

You could try syncing your outlook with one of those web based calendar
systems then syncing back.

this looks promising

Check out the program OSASYNC at http://www.vaita.com/index.asp (also
available via the MS office marketplace.

I use it to syncronize the outlook contacts list between my wife's computer
and my own. It just auto-detects changes and updates whenever we are both on
my wireless router.

The not-free version is adversised to do more.

I've never tried it, but my other guess is that you could use a pocket pc
("palm pilot"). I'm pretty sure you could get it to sync for you if you
messed around with the settings. [computer 1 --> pocket pc --> computer 2
--> pocket pc --> computer 1] (just make sure it's backed up before the
first sync).
