[missing-sync-winmobile-talk] Syncing deletes contacts on device

[Ken Freeman]

Try the latest 2.5.2b1 (BETA) build at www.markspace.com/testing. If  
the problem still exists with that build log a bug (also at  
www.markspace.com/testing) and be sure to include a copy of your  
Address Book data so that we can test with it and determine if it is  
a problem with the device, or the data (I suspect there is a record  
that is causing the communication error.
