Sync outlook from MSN to Pocket PC (Outlook Connector)

I would like to sync my MSN calendar, my outlook calendar, and my Pocket PC
calendar, and only enter each appointment once. But maybe I'm asking for too
much too soon. I have Outlook Connector (MSN Premium), Outlook 2003, and
ActiveSync 4.2. I've had the Pocket PC (T-mobile's MDA) and Outlook 2003 and
everything has been working fine. I just started with Outlook connector which
appearantly synchronizes with a calendar in outlook that is not the default
"Calendar" ("calendar in (e-mail address removed)"). So I have gone through the
trouble of individually copying my recurring appointments over to the new
calendar (connector won't support copying appointments that have unusual
recurrence patterns by the way). The problem is activesync will only
synchronize with the default "Calendar". Is there a way to configure outlook
so that I don't have to manually compare and copy from one calendar to
another all of the time.

I noticed a somewhat related post :
"Calendar in Mailbox" as default calendar, posted 5/26/2006 7:41 AM PST by

Brian TIllmans response seems an attractive solution.
I am, however, unsure if activesync will return an error if I move all of
the appointments from the default calendar to the one under my email address,
and somehow remove the default calendar (I don't know if it is looking for
"the calendar" or just 'a' calendar.

ActiveSync will sync only with your default calendar - the one in yout
delivery location data store. Other sync programs can work with non-default
data stores.
