AIUI prior to Missing Sync 5 in order to sync between other Sync Services
things and a Palm required a click in iSync.app *and* a press of the Hotsync
button on the Palm. (But this is only AIUI - being an Entourage user I've
never really run iSync.app in anger.)

Is this still the case in MS 5, or can pressing one button (which one?)
start "everything"?
