RE: Not the first....
I've been looking into it, and as far as I can tell...you're absolutely right. There seems to be nothing that DataViz's new software does that does anything more than you get with VersaMail. In fact, Exchange ActiveSync is a Microsoft technology (though DataViz claims to have helped develop it...)
I'm sending an email to DataViz to see if I can get an explaination....

RE: Not the first....
My problem with the way Versamail does it is that there does not appear to be away to only get e-mail. If you set up an exchange activesync account in Versamail it replaces the calendar on the Palm device with the calendar from the corporate server. I personally only want the mail and attachments. I believe that RoadSync syncs e-mail only.
BTW, I don't believe that SnapperMail allows this type of e-mail account, SnapperMail supports IMAP and POP3 only.

Not the first....
Huh? Unless I am missing something, out of the box, Versamail on the Treo 650 does this same thing. How is RoadSync the first? And more importantly, how is it different/better than Versamail's ActiveSync capability?
