NOKIA PC Suite 7.0 available for Download (synchronization with IBM Lotus Notes)

Nokia just announced a PC Suite 7.0 http://europe.nokia.com/A4144903

Just choose your phone, and download PC SUITE installation. It upgrades existing Lotus Notes installation if necessary.

A little bit annoying thing that almost every software would like to reboot my box...

You can say NO, and just start PC Suite from Start Menu if you are on Windows.

In Syncronization applet, I have found two new options synchronize,   Browsers Bookmarks, and synchronize documents between some PC folder and mobile phone.

Tab Lotus Notes tab is still called 7.x, but it works fine to Sync Calendar and Contacts in Release 5.x, 6.x, 7.x and 8.x.

The other applets were also improved, like Contacts and Backup.
So now it is easier to search for particular phone (for example you entered phone twice under different names).

I hope that Nokia put some other new features in this version, and I also HOPE THAT Lotus will support Symbian phones in Lotus Traveller that is planned for Fall 2008.

So it is worth to upgrade to this version. http://europe.nokia.com/A4144903

This is encouraging. I was about to throw away my E90 for lack of decent task sync.

Have they done anything to improve synching of tasks from Notes to the Phone. Specifically can you create tasks and assign them to categories and have that sync between Notes & Phone? Can you create on either?

Hi, Just checked.

It seems that no. :( there is no such field in Nokia.

I try to implement Getting Things Done by David Allen and I use Lotus Notes as he recomends, but I realy miss categories in my phone (for example CALL, so I know that I should CALL someone when I am on the road).

If you use GTD & Notes, you'll want to check out { Link } (Shameless plug: My application) which makes Getting Things Done in Notes, easy.

Back to the Nokia, it's a shame to not have categories or the ability to sync them. What a waste of an otherwise incredible phone. No way I could use this for real work.. That's too bad.

Thanks for your blog.

Eric

WOW, thanks for link.

It is a real pleasure for me that my blog add value to people. I hope tools that I am writing will make Lotus products more popular (like Administration of a Domino server from a mobile phone){ Link } and (Ultra-Lite email).

Thank you.
