I don’t use my mobile much. What I need is a phone that also stores my calendar and frequently-used phone numbers. That is about it.

All phones synchronise with your PC don’t they? That is what the nice man in Carphone Warehouse told me anyway.

Nonsense of course. All phones synchronise all the entries in your outlook address book. In my case around one thousand. Very few phones allow you to tag entries in your address book for synchronisation. My Moto does.

Very few phones sync your calendar. My Moto doesn’t any more. Not since I installed Outlook 2007. The support forum for the software tells me that a new version is with Moto for testing and that this normally takes two months.

They only ship a few million phones, what is so hard about shipping software that works.
