What I've noticed is that the TREO will perform a PULL sync. It doesn't
even look like it is trying to upload changes, only download. I haven't
been able to find any settings like in Hotsync where you can specify which
has overide authority, PDA or PC.

If you use Activesync for VersMail and your calendar, the option to sync the
calendar via Hotsync and the USB cable is not allowed.

Let's hope people add more input, maybe we can get this figured out.

Thanks,

Andrew
