RuppLynx 6.1.1 - including Zaurus sync with Outlook - looks like ~$69. Some reviews suggest it's a bit buggy, doesn't support non-default field mappings, and may have some difficulties with recurring appointments. http://www.rupp.com/ http://www.rupplynx.com/ This page seems to suggest that "Intellisync for SL" will allow Outlook sync, and also implies that this is included with the SL-5500. (Perhaps it's not included with the SL-5500D?) Check your docs. http://www.sharp-usa.com/products/ModelDetailedSpecs/0,1161,698,00.html Other docs suggest that "one-touch" Outlook synchronization is a feature out of the box. I don't have a Zaurus, nor do I use Outlook, so YMMV.

Thanks for the update!! I know I touched on this in the meeting in Cons(hoho)cken but I was wondering if anyone knew anyway to make the Zaurus or Qtopia desktop sync with outlook? Does anyone know of any projects that are working on this? In my estimation that kind of functionality would be huge for companies looking for an alternative to pocketpc devices. Just curious.
