Nope, it syncs contacts and calendar with whatever email service you use, can be Windows Live or Gmail or Yahoo...
Thanks for this info!
I never got round to setting up a Windows Live ID, but just have, and have got Outlook to sync up with that Windows Live account, so in a roundabout way, that restores the sync'ing with Outlook as when I sync Windows Live with WM7, that will automatically sync Outlook too. A bit of a palaver to set up, but I've just realised it has the unbelievable benefit of bypassing the horrendous ActiveSync. In fact, I'd guess that you don't have ActiveSync at all in WM7, right?
After a bit more research I think I'm pretty much sold now on getting the HTC 7 Pro.
...but no 4g...
Talking of 4G, the UK seems to be incredibly delayed in getting on board the 4G bandwagon. I guess the operators still remember getting their fingers burnt with too much debt in the overpriced 3G auction at about the height of the dotcom boom, and are dragging their heels this time round.
ActiveSync is dead
you'll be using the Zune desktop software (or WP7 Connector on Mac)
Yes, I want a Windows Phone too, now. But so far, This is the best phone I've owned to date, it is pretty nifty.Since October 2010, my main phone's been an Nokia 5230, I went for a limited edition White/Silver one.

I love this phone.
I have the exact same model. Very nice phone. Although we'll be switching carriers soon so I may get an iPhone. Although I kind of want a Windows Phone so that I can make my own applications (I do a lot of Silverlight development).
OK, that's me decided then. As soon as WP7 gets custom ringtones and turn-by-turn voice navigation (I don't think Bing Maps does that in the UK yet), I'm there. Those are the only two things I currently use that I'll need my next phone to do, and I really like the big/clear WP7 interface more than the other two major competitors so that's the OS I want.

there are a few third party apps with turn-by-turn navigation, but with regards to custom ringtones we're out of luck until they decide to implement it![]()
You'll be in luck very soon then, since Nokia and Microsoft have just struck a deal and Nokia is already working on their first WP7 phone.Nokia N79. By far the best mobile I've ever had.
I'm mildly tempted to grab an Android or W7 phone, but I doubt I'd use most of the features (or even be able to) so it seems pointless. And besides, I like Nokias. They seem more able to cope with abuse (of the unintentional kind, like being dropped) than other phones.
My Motorola phone has an app that detects when anyone uses the Star Trek Communicator chirp on their flip-phones, and then automatically texts everyone in the immediate area and tells them to laugh at that person and not with them.
Unfortunately, the small print on my contract says that you are then required to read three pages of commentary about the incident, so the punishment fits the crime.
Nokia durability with a more up-to-date OS. Excellent.You'll be in luck very soon then, since Nokia and Microsoft have just struck a deal and Nokia is already working on their first WP7 phone.Nokia N79. By far the best mobile I've ever had.

I'm pretty sure all MP3 players are like that nowadaysNokia X6. I like it OK, except that the mp3 player will only group tracks into albums if they have EXIF data attached to them. If you put them in named folders the tracks just come out in one long list unless they EXIF data has the album name in it.
