[missing-sync-winmobile-talk] Changing the sync direction

[AL Grant]

Brian,

However even though Apple does not want you doing that it is the most
desirable way. The reason being At work or school I use a PC that syncs my
PDA interactively. This is really great, however when I come home my Mac
wants to overwrite some of the things I have changed on my PDA. This is a
real pain. Not only that but my Mac is sync on demand only not interactive
that is good but not as good as interactive.

Just my 2¢
