Sounds cool, but I get:

Hope it is fixed soon. This look like what so many have been requesting for years!

Mightysync doesn't sync anything to your storage card. Only sub-folders of your My Documents folder.

No storage card. But the program seems to work pretty seamlessly. The interface is pretty good too for a $6 program.

Very handy!!! I always hated having to copy and paste stuff to the sync folder. Now if only I weren't afraid of linking Word desktop files with Pocket Word...Palm still has PocketPC beat in that category.

Uhm... ok. AS already does this unless you are talking folders 2+ levels down, but then your apps can't see it anyway.

I was wanting the memory card sync. Oh well. Maybe in a few more years. :cry:

The new version (2.0) of MightySync does indeed sync to a storage card. I've been experimenting with it today and I've synced a whole load of MP3s and iSilo documents straight to the card. If I delete or update a document on the card then re-sync, the desktop version also gets deleted or updated.

This from PocketNow.com's entry for version 2.0

"Summary:
New for 2.0: Sync anywhere on your Pocket PC with anywhere on your Desktop -- yes, even to your Compact Flash Card! Also now syncs folders!"

If you don't believe me download it and try it. I can assure you that it DOES work :-)

The link from here seems to work. I'm syncing my safe store right now. If this works, I'll probably buy it.

OK that was pretty fast. There was one problem. There's no cancel when you set up a sync and so if you try to close the Add Files for Syncing dialog box, it tries to sync what you've done. It should probably only save and instantiate the sync when you confirm with the Finish button. That caused the deletion of one of my files. Bummer. Other than that, this looks like a really cool program.

I don't know happens if you swap cards and sync again though. One would hope it notices that the card name has changed or something.

I was running a 1.x version, will be buying the 2.0 version for sure. I emailed the dev with 1 additional request- the ability to minimize the program to the system tray. This way it doesn't take up space on the start bar or whatever it's called.

Great program!!
