Ron,
There are numerous posts here already addressing this. Be that as it may,
have you downloaded and installed the free MS BCM WM3 for synching BCM
Business contacts to your Pocket PC device? Assuming that you have done this
you likely have discovered first hand the feature limited reality of the MS
designed BCM add-in with respect to one-handed (without stylus) look up,
caller ID lacking, etc. The BCM for WM literally synchs to its own separate
application on your mobile device. Like on the PC, the native Outlook
Contacts and the BCM Business Contacts are stored within an entirely separate
db from each other. This is no accident. This is by design. The only
current way to synch all of your separate Contact folders together only into
the device contacts apps is (embarassingly) via a 3rd party synch developer.
Chapura has an excellent solution called Pocket Mirror Professional for WM
that can be purchased here at: www.chapura.com.
BTW, here is another link to a humerous blogger with some additional thoughts
about "BCM Mobile":
