I should be able to sync multiple contact folders with Active Sync, not just
the main contact folder. Scrolling through 1200 contacts on my PDA is not
efficient.

Your PDA can't support more than one Contacts list, so how would syncing
multiple Outlook contacts folders with a single PDA Contacts help?

Such a helpful response.

Maybe third party software could help this issue.

Perhaps if you assigned categories to your contacts and used a single default contact folder, they would all sync to your PDA/Phone yet still retain their usefullness in Outlook.

I think I know what you mean, Kimi.  If you categorize your contacts, you
could (in versions of ActiveSync before 4.x) synchronize selected categories.
Unfortunately the latest version does not allow such control.
