I'm loving OneNote 2007 as a single place to capture notes and ideas, and now that I'm using it regularly, I'm not minding how stripped-down OneNote Mobile is. I appreciate the choices that have been made, economising on features to get the most readability out of the screen.
What I don't understand is how these programs synchronise with each other.
When I delete a note from the mobile client, it stays on the desktop. And while changes I make within the notes are updating properly (it seems), these programs don't seem to follow the usual pattern of "What I change here replaces what's over there, and what I change over there gets synched back here." It works, but I'm still not feeling confident about how much I can trust that I won't lose important ideas and notes.
Does anyone have an insight into the metaphor/model/pattern that OneNote uses to synchronise with the mobile client?
