It comes with Outlook, not a simple memo and calendar app, but a fully
fleged email program and PIM tool. I'm using a copy of Outlook 2003 and
it's very slow, I'm thinking of downgrading to Outloook 2000, don't know
if that'll work with active sync but the colourful menus anf icons just
slow down my pc big time.
