I think the problem is that extra RAM means extra drain on the battery. And
in versions of the OS prior to WM5, there was a requirement for so many
hours of RAM backup before all your data would be lost. With the move to
persistant storage, that requirement went away. So actually, what you'll
need is more ROM, not RAM. And some manufacturer's are including up to
256MB of ROM, like on the Dell Axim X51v.
Personally, I find a number of the MS limitations/assumptions about where
files are going to be located frustrating. Things like applications that
can only see files one level deep in the expected directory structure, etc.
As far as your issue goes, there are a number of 3rd party sync products,
and most PDA software has evaluation versions. Go to www.handango.com, and
look in the Utilities->Synchronization software.

Well thanks Chris, for the reply, if not for the info.
Bit of a bugger that.
Can't understand why, with Memory being so cheap, PDAs don't come with
significant inbuilt RAM, which would alleviate this problem.
Given that they don't, why would MS hobble it further with such a
preclusion?
Daft.
Are there any third party fudge-fixes which get round this, whilst
maintaining the undoubted benefits of full Outlook sync?
