So this is where Evo gets to be better than it's Windows counterparts. I think the ability to map fields between Evo and the Pilot would be very useful, and I'd love to see it as a post-1.0 feature. 'Course, if I'm alone, I'll either shut up or write it myself :) Anyone else? On Fri, 2001-09-28 at 14:29, JP Rosevear wrote:

We were already doing this for desktop fields but we were overwriting the category and custom fields (addressbook) on the pilot. I fixed this. The only way that info like the birthday will go missing completely is if you delete it on the desktop and some action on the pilot causes it to be put back, but then you have to ask yourself - how important is deleted info? :-)
