I have Touchdown and can see NOTES as an optioin to select along with Inbox, Sent, etc. However, I can’t select NOTES. Is there a way to sync my NOTES from outlook to show on my droid? Thanks!! Chris Barnhardt

I actually agree that this is a great application. However, what is missing from all the tablet hype, is the fact that most large corp exchange environments require the ability to manage the devices based on their security preferences and require the device have a carrier. I found this out after purchasing a Acer A500 and installed the touchdown software. My Samsung Vibrant had no issues and after reading the requirements on my corp’s support site, learned that I need a device with a carrier. This fact has not be mentioned in any articles I’ve review or forums. Might be good to add, I’m sure it would impact buying decision.
