Droid with Outlook - how?

I have been an Outlook junkie for 10 years. Droid works very well with Outlook. The only thing that drives me crazy is snoozing appointments. All that being said I am migrating more and more to all Google and away from MS

What are you using to sync Droid with Outlook?

Outlook to Droid - how?

I am not a realtor, but I work in the industry. I bought the phone for the GPS and I have been impressed with using it to get to properties. I work primarily in a newer area. I used to have to find 30-40 % of addresses in Google anyway because my stand alone GPS would not. Now I can put the property address in my Outlook calendar or even copy and paste a web page from the property listing in the calendar on my desk top for the day/time I need to be there. I open the date on my phone, press the address link, GPS pops up and away I go.

How is that data getting from Outlook on the desktop to your Droid?

Thanks. Do you also sync contacts between Outlook and Droid and if so, how?

Contacts do not sync so easily (my experience anyway) When I originally switched to Droid from a WinMobile pda, Verizon synced all of my contacts. I tried several things in the beginning syncing new contacts, but now I am strictly Google for contacts. I haven't looked at Outlook for months.

I am a Realtor & just got a Droid X. I am planning on using Google Apps for syncing the phone with my Outlook. I have found a couple of nice mortgage calculators and the I have already had the opportunity to take some pictures to send directly to another agent.
