Travel Technology - Simplest phone for Outlook synchronisation

Hi everyone,

I want to buy a phone and all I really want it to use it for (except calling) is to have my Outlook contacts/calendar with me and be able to sync that with my home and office PCs. I don't need email or mp3 (have a nice Iriver H300) or digital camera. What's the simplest/cheapest phone that will do this?

Thanks!

Me too, except I do need mail. My other BIG requirement is that it must work in all western industrialized nations (or at least Europe and the US) and not be too expensive to use.

I think the Sony Ericsson T610 does the job. My T-mobile contract is $39.99/month. And it works in Europe.

That too would be my advise. Nice free software to sync with, options of syncing with Infrared, Bluetooth or an optional cable.

I purchased the T-610 because you posted a link to Amazon. Thanks ^
The service from T-Mobile is very effective .. very helpful and professional agents .. they even called me back as promised. :-:
I tried both Infrared and Bluetooth - both worked fine.
I actually used Infrared the first time (to transfer data from my very, very old Palm, =free gift from a bank).
$1 per minute is a little expensive, but the phone worked fine. ScottC, I guess you have another SIM for this?!?
