Entering contact information onto a fresh device can be really daunting. I have so many contacts between my Outlook email contacts, my IM contacts (MSN, GTalk, Y!), and of course, my regular phone contacts. So many email addresses, phone numbers, birthdays, and home addresses to remember!
Windows Mobile devices tries to make organizing all of these contacts as simple as possible and makes it very easy to manage your contacts including your Outlook and Windows Live contacts in a personalized way to suits you best. Contacts are stored on the internal device memory or on a SIM card. The address book lets you enter many items of information for Outlook or Windows Live contacts stored on the device, including name, work phone number, e-mail address, company address, and birthday. For contacts kept on the SIM card, you can save only the contact’s name and phone number. If you move the SIM card to another device, the SIM contact is moved too, saving you from having to enter in all those names and numbers every time you switch to a new device.
How-to: Manage your mobile phone contacts
XDA Developers has just written a very helpful utility called ActiveSync Killer to help you free up your system resources and memory by stopping ActiveSync from running in the background.
ActiveSync Killer works my stopping the ActiveSync application process from idly running in the background. This unclogs your phone’s resources and memory during those times when ActiveSync is not actively syncing up to your information.
After download, ActiveSync Killer needs to install directly onto the device then the device will need a soft reset. The application should run on any Windows Mobile Professional device but as always, use with caution as this is not an official Microsoft software application.

Well, well well — it looks like Phone Arena got their wonderfully nerdy little hands on some leaked documentation on the HTC Touch Diamond and HTC Touch Pro for Sprint and Verizon, and – uh oh – it looks like Verizon’s going to limit their version of the Diamond. The overall idea is still the same, thankfully, with both having a 2.8-inch screen, EV-DO Rev. A, 3.2-megapixel autofocus camera, 802.11b/g, 1340mAh battery, internal GPS, and Bluetooth 2.0. What’s really different is in the processor and RAM.
