Very Cool!

I see the same thing when using either the M$-Outlook plugin or the =20
Funambol Windows Mobile plugin.

I see the same thing when using either the M$-Outlook plugin or the =20
Funambol Windows Mobile plugin.

Yep;  of course one sort of expects that.  :)

Hmmm.  Mine sort-of-works.  I can change the time, location, or =20
description on the client and those changes sync to OGo.  What I =20
cannot change is the comment;  doing so weems to blank the comment on =20
the server.  What fields did you try changing (I don't even know what =20
fields the phone provides).

Ugh.  I thought the Funambol server was supposed to deal with "./" =20
automatically; maybe not.

I'd ask about this particular bit on the Funambol list.
