Synching a phone with entourage?

If you are using Entourage to access Exchange server, you can use ActiveSync
with a number of different phones that use Palm, Simbian or (hold your nose)
Windows Mobile 5.0. Operating Systems.

If it's a Bluetooth phone and if it is recognized by iSync, you can get
a pretty good sync.
Entourage 2004 can sync to the system database through Sync Services.
That's the database iSync queries when it syncs through BLuetooth.

With the supported phones, it works fairly well :)

There are some additional profiles for Sony and Nokia phones for
instance on a few additional websites (usually shareware).

If it is a PalmPhone, you could use The Missing SYnc (the Palm conduits
are a nightmare for all the phones I've seen here).

I just tried to synch Entourage 2004 with my Pocket PC Phone:

From iSynch I choose to sych devices, however, it is unable to see it
(No Device Found). I already set
up my phone through the Bluetooth Device option and am able to transfer
files back-and-forth between the phone and mac. I have Bluetooth on the
phone turned on and have it set to be discoverable.

Any ideas what I might be able to do to get this to work so I can synch
my contacts?

for PocketPC:

PocketPC phones don't use SyncML like "regular" bluetooth phones adn
they are not on the Apple list of supported phones.
