Windows Mobile Sync on Vista

Author: BlueKnight

With one of my laptops being Vista I tried to sync my phone, a Sprint Mogul to the Vista laptop.  This is a Microsoft Mobile 6.1 phone from Sprint and I always had it synchronized to my former Windows xp laptop.

Unfortunately this is severely broken with the Vista operating system. I have tried all that is humanly possible but with very little success. This was a good 3 hour lesson in frustration without there being any possibility of success.

This left me looking for another way to manage my daily routines. Since I use Mozilla Thunderbird as my mail client and Google as my calendar only my address book needs replacement.

This also made my resolve to look for another phone platform. The choices are Android and the iPhone. iPhone is a bit of a problem since I have no desire to leave Sprint. But that is a totally different project that I will undertake.
