Alternative Syncing Apps

You may have noticed that, while your calendar and contact info can sync with an Exchange account, your notes and tasks cannot.

Third-party apps, like Nitrodesk TouchDown and CompanionLink DejaOffice, can extend your tablet's syncing power. Both apps are commercially sold through the Android Market and other app stores.

TouchDown offers Exchange task syncing, in addition to the other standard options offered in Android 2.2 and later.

DejaOffice is a great choice for Galaxy Tab owners. It enables you to sync various items with Exchange, including tasks and notes. You can also change the display to represent the Getting Things Done or Franklin Covey task organization systems.
