Default calender sync program

Please Login to Remove!

Does anyone know of any easy to use and of course free software that allows you to sync certain applications (mainly calender events or tasks) from the computer to the blackberry? I know I always enjoyed being able to do this when I had a PocketPC and a Palm.

Use your Desktop Manager to sync the BB to MS Outlook, that is the most seamless and foolproof way.

yeah i suppose that could work out... i just haven't been using Outlook at all for my e-mail and didn't think of that. i guess i just won't use it for e-mail purposes at all - just for calender. thanks for your help.

For a different style of idea that I enjoy (neither free or desktop oriented, uses a webserver of your choice) take a read here:

http://www.blackberryforums.com/linu...inux-unix.html

Besides solving a linux problem, this method enables me to keep everything "in the sky" which is better for my personal style; I treat workstations as disposable and keep everything on servers (mail, calendar, etc.). I fully expect my laptop hard drive to die at any given moment (even though it probably won't) and treat it as a dumb client for data.

Rivviepop,
I do it the way, JSanders suggested.
How complicated is your approach?

For me it's childs play. I have no idea how complicated it would be for you.
