Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Sprint PCS / February 2006Is there a Sprint Smart phone that can sync with outlook
Is there a sprint phone that can sync with Outlook? I don't want a pda phone. Too big, too expensive. I read a post about the samsung i500 and i600, but those are not available on sprint's website. Thanks.! djohn554@yahoo.com wrote in news:1140195938.664838.121550 @g43g2000cwa.googlegroups.com: > Is there a sprint phone that can sync with Outlook? I don't want a pda > phone.

In fact I hve a Kyocera 6035 that syncs nicely to Outlook and includes all PalmOS functions sitting here unused in the box. The i500 is not being sold anymore through Sprint. Either of their smart phones currently available can sync with Outlook but the Treo 650 needs Chapura installed to accomplish this. I have the i500 and like it a lot but want to upgrade and use the i500 as a backup phone. I'm just waiting to see what the Treo 700p look like and what features it has. Last report I saw said it should reach the stores sometime in April. > djohn554@yahoo.com wrote in news:1140195938.664838.121550 > @g43g2000cwa.googlegroups.com: [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > In fact I hve a Kyocera 6035 that syncs nicely to Outlook and includes all > PalmOS functions sitting here unused in the box. > The i500 is not being sold anymore through Sprint.

I have Treo 650, and it can sync with outlook using the conduits that are on the CD. I did not have to install any third party software. > I have the i500 and like it a lot but want to upgrade and use the i500 as a > backup phone.

Others can have their own. Yeah, it's called Chapura Pocket Mirror. It comes on the CDs but has to be installed for you to sync with Outlook. These days it usually asks you during the install process of Palm Desktop if you sync with Outlook and it installs it for you if you says yes. But back when I started using Palms back in 98 you had to install it on your own (it even came on the CDs back then I think). > I have Treo 650, and it can sync with outlook using the conduits that are on > the CD.

On the CD that I have there is no mention of Chapura, it just says conduit for outlook. Maybe Palm bought the company/rights to software. > Yeah, it's called Chapura Pocket Mirror.

Others can have their own. I don't think so but it you might be right. Not sure because I don't use Outlook. I do know the CDs used to ship with limited versions of Pocket Mirror and it's written by a company called Chapura. > Hmmm....

And Outlook is not a news reader... But for the record, Pocket Mirror used to--or perhaps still does--have the ability to sync PIM data with Outlook, yet email with Outlook Express (or Outlook). I used to find that amusing, as MS's own sync app--ActiveSync--didn't have that ability (and I doubt it does now). SignatureMike > > > I don't think so but it you might be right.

Neither is Outlook Express, really. <ducking> -- ~~R.Banks > Oh please; Outlook Express is an entirely different application than > Outlook. To avoid this type of confusion in the future, Microsoft has renamed OE as "Windows Mail" in the next Windows OS (Vista). SignatureJohn Richards I use Outlook Express only to view and respond to news groups, not email. I do not use Outlook at all. > > I don't think so but it you might be right.

It's called Palm Outlook Conduits--and it's been the standard for some time now. If you want Pocket Mirror, you can buy it. And for the record, Palm Outlook Conduits is not the same as Pocket Mirror. The person you responded to was using a Treo 650, ergo not using Pocket Mirror (he can still buy it). See here: "http://kb.palmone.com/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE?New,kb=PalmSupportKB,CASE=obj(3571 3),ts=Palm_External2001" (Or http://tinyurl.com/k6d4l) Mike | Why do drugstores make the sick walk all the way '04 FLHTCUI | to the back of the store to get their prescriptions | while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front? Thanks for clearing that up. Whenever it asked me if I use Outlook I always say no because I don't use it. > > Yeah, it's called Chapura Pocket Mirror. > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > The person you responded to was using a Treo 650, ergo not using Pocket > Mirror (he can still buy it).

Thank you for all of the responses. However, let me rephrase my question: Do any of the NON-PDA phones that Sprint is currently selling sync with Outlook contacts? Such as the Nokia 3155i? Thanks. > Thank you for all of the responses. > > However, let me rephrase my question: > > Do any of the NON-PDA phones that Sprint is currently selling sync with > Outlook contacts? Such as the Nokia 3155i? Well, yes. In fact the Nokia 3155i can sync with Outlook (Contacts, Calendar, and To-Do--I'm not sure about memos). This is accomplished by the (free) Nokia PC Suite, which does more than just sync with Outlook. You will need a cable, as I don't think the phone includes one in the box. But you should be able to find a cable elsewhere. You can get the sync software here: "http://www.nokiausa.com/support/pcsuite/overview.html" Please note I do not know if Sprint forced Nokia to cripple this phone, preventing PC Suite from working, but I suspect not as Nokia list Sprint as a carrier of the phone--without mentioning any caveats (other than that it's available in "select locations"). SignatureMike | Another study I've devised involves asking '04 FLHTCUI | a woman to open a jar of pickles. |
