Maybe I'm missing something, but I see that serial connection support is being dropped. Since bluetooth connectivity is essentially an emulated serial connection, does that mean we've lost that now, too? I didn't see bluetooth mentioned anywhere (granted, it was more of a skim over the pages than a thorough read).

Although I have yet to upgrade to Vista, I am using Office 2007.

I have to say that I am thoroughly disappointed with OneNote Mobile.

It does add a replication option to Activesync but it doesn’t do a very good job. I am constantly getting duplicated OneNote Sections named after my device as well as duplicated notes.

Also, the functionality of OneNote Mobile on my PocketPC is very limited. At least a “Zoom” feature like the regular Notes would have been nice.
