What mobile phones sync with Business Contact Manager's Accounts .

[Guest]

I bought a Cingular's 2125 phone with Mobile 5.0 on 06-21-06. Today is
06-22-06. Microsoft Business Contact Manager does not have an add-in for
Mobile 5.0. I then bought Chapura's pocket mirror application, which does
not sync with Accounts and Business Contacts within the Business Contact
Manager. Only Business Contacts sync. Is there any way to sync Business
Conctact Manager with Windows MObile 5.0 so that both the Contacts and
Accounts copy into the contacts on the phone?

In the alternative, is there a smart phone that someone could recommend?

Windows Mobile 2003, 2003SE, and 2002 are supported.
Smartphone is not supported as of 6/22/06.
Windows mobile 5.0 is not supported as of 6/22/06.

I've used Chapura's software and it's pretty good.

A more complete application is available from Odyssey in the form of Pocket
on Schedule. Be advised that I found it to be buggy a couple of months ago
when running with my uncustomized Office 2003 environment. It's very
ambitious, however, and does have a lot of features from regular BCM.

Microsoft will likely release an update to BCM Mobile, but it's unknown
when.

In the meantime, I have clients who use Samsung i700 and i730 quite happily
running on 2003SE platform.

I'm looking for the path of least resistance so, I'll check out the Samsung
i700 and i730.
Thanks for your advice.

Sorry to barge in.... but what is BCM Mobile? Is that an actual application
that MS has kept secret or is it simply a name you have given to a future
product?

BCM for pocket PC, hence BCM Mobile (less typing).
