[missing-sync-pocketpc-talk] Working well for me

I wanted to write in to also help people out that currently think  
only the worst of this software. I am also one of the users that is  
having no major issues at all (after a few niggly ones) with Missing  
Sync, and my iPAQ 4150 is now syncing successfully with both my Mac  
and my PC.

Issues/Tips:
1. The main issue I had was with subscribed calendars not syncing or  
being duplicated - no big deal for me and I fixed this temporarily by  
deleting these and awaiting an official fix.

2. The other thing I found is that under Tiger I recommend turning  
off .Mac syncing for Address Book and iCal until you have them just  
right otherwise it gets in the way and may add to perceived issues  
during initial syncs. Then do a "Reset Sync Data" for .Mac from the  
System Preferences in "Advanced", using the information on you Mac,  
not from .Mac.

3. I have one other issue in that bluetooth syncing will work the  
first few times, but then the "dots" stop coming up all together  
until I reboot. Not much of an issue for me as a cable connection is  
faster and my Mac is a desktop not laptop (so cables don't bother  
me), but it would be nice to get fixed.

Thanks,
Shane.
