[missing-sync-winmobile-talk] Information about the New Entourage Update

[Ken Freeman]

Is what comes to mind is the riddle, "How do you eat an elephant?"

The answer is, "One bite at a time!" Or should I say, "One byte at a  
time!" (couldn't resist!)

So it is very much a technical reason as to why it is taking so long.  
That being, "This is hard!" The methods of connecting and  
communicating with Windows Mobile 5 devices changed drastically! The  
task is very complex. Keep in mind that this project is not like a  
typical software project, where the developer has defined API's,  
sample code, and various developer tools.

Hang in there!
