Sony Ericsson's new PC suite

I was on the brink of getting "bored" of my Sony P1i and switching back to Nokia. A good opportunity presented itself as my wife's handset got damaged. I thought I'd convince her to use my P1i and get myself another phone. Problem was, I didn't really know what I was missing.

I am not a music-on-the-go kind of person so am quite happy with the multimedia capabilities on my cellphone.

I hate cameras on mobile phones because they are frankly rubbish. I leave "taking pictures" to my (awesome) 450D

I do care for email and calendar synchronization and that's where the problem was.

When I got the phone a year back, the PC suite that came with it couldn't sync with Lotus Notes. But the new PC suite does connect to Lotus Notes and does it rather well actually :)

The only downside seems to be the fact that there are enough unfortunate people in the world who use Lotus Notes to induce SE into integrating with it.

Mail :-)

Does your day begin alright but as soon as you reach office and check mail you get really frustrated?

Are you actively contemplating switching your job because your organization's mail system?

Are you a victim of Lotus Notes?

Are you using 6.5?

Amazing as it may sound I have found the solution. Use Notes 8 client and replicate. It worked for me maaaayyyybe it'll work for you too :)
