Bluetooth Mobile Phon 2.0

Summary: Do NOT use this software! WILL DELETE CONTACT INFO!
Review: I am a fairly advanced computer user, so if I'm having so much trouble with this software and bluetooth connection, I can't imagine how any normal person could figure it out. But worse, the software IS CLEARLY DELETING VALUABLE CONTACT INFORMATION FROM MY OUTLOOK!

To start, users of Windows Service Pack 2 have to do a manual work around to get the bluetooth to work. They explain this once you dig deep at the Motorola support site. But the instructions are terrible and only after careful guessing was I successful.

But that's when the real fun starts. For several days, it appeared everything was running just fine -- then everything stopped working. I even upgraded to the newest 3.0 version, but still no luck. Only after a difficult system restore and reinstallation did things work again. No idea why.

That's when I noticed the biggest problem of all. After doing a sync, the software was DELETING business addresses and removing the street address from home addresses. Crazy since that information doesn't even sync to the phone. I can't explain it, but I was fortunate enough to have a backup of my data and try again. Sure enough, it did it again.

I must note that I also run Plaxo to keep my contacts up to date. Perhaps there is some conflict with that software, but considering millions of people use it, it shouldn't matter. But I saw big problems even after uninstalling Plaxo.

This software is not ready for primetime and should be pulled. It's just not worth risking the loss of your contact data!
