Can anyone explain the difference between these two methods of tracking
contact related info?  I'd like to turn journaling on, but get a notice
saying the contact activities tab is better suited.  Ideally, what I'd like
to have is the 10,000 ft view of the entries.  Not a granular solution which
would require looking at each contact's activity tab for the info.  Thanx!

A contact's Activities page can show all of the items related to that contact -- either by email address or by explicit link --  not just the specific items stored in the Jurnal folder.

That helps a bunch.  I synch Outlook to my Treo650.  I'd be lost w/out that
handy little gadget.  It's saved my derrier more than once.  My synch conduit
is Pocket Mirror Pro XT.  Chapura has developed a couple options and I'm
simply trying to understand how the options interact w/the Outlook, and other
PalmOS, data.  Thanx Sue!
