PPC synchronisation with BCM

Why does this not synchonise with PPC handhelds? I need to carry my contact
details with me but because the BCM platform does not sunchronise with PPC I
have to create two records for each business contact, on inBCM and one in the
Contacts folder.

This is pretty silly and removes a considerable amount of the benefit of the
package.

What is being done and when will it be available?
 
v1 does not sync with a ppc - you'll need to wait for a newer version, but I
have no idea how long the wait will be.

Thanks Diane, this much seems obvious. Given that it does not do what is
required can anyone provide a suggestion to an alternative package? - if I
have to change my e-mail client to achieve this I will.

It might not meet your cost requirements, but salesforce.com is a very
powerful solution. You can integrate it with Outlook and sync it with your
PDA; I have tried both (with a Palm though) and it works very well. You may
register and use Personal Edition for free; however if you want to integrate
your email, your emails will be branded.

Cheers, Thorbjorn

I just discovered yesterday that the newest version of Pocket On-Schedule
will include BCM synching. You can check it out at
