Both - at work I use a sync-and-charge cable, and at home I use a
cradle. I can't see the difference?!
The type of cable doesn't matter - but if you are having problems syncing
over a wifi, you first need to confirm it works correctly using a direct
cable connection. How to enable/troubleshoot wifi sync will probably get
better answers in the ppc newsgroups where more people use the feature.
Right now the situation is: at
work I have my work email/calendar via Exchange, and a separate
(private) account via Outlook Connector. I use intelliSync to
on-way-sync (copy/update) the items from my work calendar to my
outlook live calendar. When I come home the only account I have is
outlook live meaning that I can sync using the standard MS ActiveSync.
The problems are: most important: I would like to be able to sync my
PocketPC "on the go" connecting to "hotmail servers"/the internet
using my cell-phone. Second: I would like to be able to sync my
pocketPC at work.
Syncing over the internet is not something outlook would support - it's a
server side function that Hotmail doesn't support. At the very least, you'll
need to use a 3rd party utility or service. If you have web access on the
cell phone or ppc, you can access it using wap but it won't be automatic
like it is for services like blackberry.
