I was asking for syncing of email databases of my choice. Why would that be the worst invention ever? That makes me ignorant?

I take your point about the OS upgrade, I just hope that there don't have to be critical upgrades very often.

With the Palm conduits, I've used the Palm TX and previous models for years with no sync problems whatsoever. This with office apps, and all kinds of 3rd party software as well. I can accept that Nokia don't want to do it or don't know how to do it. I don't accept that people don't want it.

I took into account that the Nokia was for techies when I bought it and it does enough things well and easily for me to not be unhappy about that. But as a small computer, it's capable of many things. I just happen to think that it would be nicer if the addition of a simple PIM suite with simple syncing was easier for a customer to accomplish.
