The upcoming Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring release will boast the easiest ever support for synchronizing with Windows Mobile 5 and 6 devices in any distribution. The adventurous can already try out the support in the current 2008 Spring pre-release repositories, by following the instructions here. Mandriva has uploaded a video demonstrating how easy it is to synchronize with a Windows Mobile 6 device right out of the box with Mandriva Linux 2008 Spring. Support is included for synchronizing with both KDE (KDE PIM) and GNOME (Evolution). Similarly easy synchronization is also possible with many Nokia phones and with Blackberry devices.

I don't know the timeline for our next Corporate release - I mostly work on the consumer side.
However, this is actually something we could potentially add in to the current Corporate release, I think (I'm actually the one implementing this sync stuff). It's obviously something that would be useful there, too. I think once we get 2008 Spring out and this stuff has some real world testing and any further bugs are shaken out, I will talk to the Corporate maintainers about whether I could get these changes merged into CD4.
