I'm somewhat upset by this... but what really upsets me about it is how the device in the screenshot is shown to be connected: Bluetooth. By dint of replacing the MS BT stack on my laptop with a BlueSoleil stack I have, in the past, managed to get a reasonably reliable ActiveSync connection over BT. Now I have a new laptop with a Toshiba BT stack and despite days of frustration, tech. support, going through online forums with a microscope, I have never managed to get ActiveSync to connect to my Vario3 via BT.

So, way to go Microsoft: Annoy me that you care more about Nokia users than you do about those of us who have purchased your own Windows Mobile devices, and then go and rub my face in it by giving those Nokia users features that flat do not work on your own products.

You know, I don't buy the whole 'company as cause' schtick, but companies that think that their existing customers need no further effort or care rapidly lose their access to the contents of my wallet.
