How is this any different/better than the free Intellisync Yahoo offers on their own site?

Oh, just noticed that Y!'s version doesn't seem to support PocketPC, only Palm. Woops... :oops:

Still, I'd be interested in hearing anyone's personal experience with this.

...if you don't have access to the Microsoft Outlook/Exchange/Mobile Information Server combo...

Now which self respecting PPC user in their right mind wouldn't have that combination? ;) :lol:

Dear akolson,
CalSync create the appointments from Yahoo to PocketPC with better linking. That means The exception of the appointment in Yahoo will become an exception of the appointment in PocketPC. The freeware from Yahoo create 2 different "not-related" appointment in PocketPC.

Second thing is the login / password is stored in the PocketPC side (yahoo intellisync store in PC side). This allow the user to use any computers which installed the CalSync PC part (which is free) to sync the calendar.
