Workaround for Zaurus and Outlook 2003
I have a workaround for the Intellisync for SL and Outlook 2003. I created a pst file and moved the folders to be synced into that folder. This might not work for everyone. The change of configuration is a bit tricky. I had to remove some of the settings, exit the apps and reset them to get the changes to stick otherwise the program would crash. You'll probably have to play around with it a bit. Here are the steps I took to change the calendar. Email me if you run into problems I can probably give you a hand.
1. select Synchronization options from taskbar
2. select 'Calendar' and press 'Choose...', the 'Choose Translator' dialog will appear
3. select 'Browse...', the 'Choose Calendar Folder(s)' dialog will appear
4. highlight the item under 'Selected Folder(s) and click 'Remove' (a dialog will appear, click yes) then 'OK'
5. this will take yo back to the 'Choose Translator' window. under 'Available Translators' select 'none' then 'OK'
6. click 'OK' again to close the synchrnoization options
1. select Synchronization options from taskbar
2. select 'Calendar' and press 'Choose...', the 'Choose Translator' dialog will appear
3. under 'available translators' choose 'Microsoft outlook'
4. click 'Browse...' and select the folder in your pst
5. click ok in the 'Choose calendar folder(s)
6. click ok in the 'Choose translator'
7. click ok again to close the synchrnoization options
(an exception will occur, ignore it)

Synchronizing Zaurus and Outlook
Ever since I upgraded to Outlook 2003, I haven't been able to get my Zaurus and Outlook to sync. I thought I'd enter a support request. Here are the responses I revceived. They have been edited for brevity.
