Hi

I am thinking about buying the Wizard (qtek 9100) (or the coming model Hermes) but before I do I need to have two answers.
I use a organizational system in outlook from windows press and without certain functions the wizard would be useless with my system.

Is it possible to adjust Wizard to show and group objects in the task list as "Categories" (that I create myself):?:
(In the same way as "due date" and so forth. Is categories an option in the wizard as it for example NOT is with Nokia mobiles.)

The second question is if it is possible so synchorize subfolders (in personal folders) in outlook with the wizard :?:

For Tasks, you can filter by category, but you cannot sort them by category. In other words, you can have Tasks show you what are in individual categories, one category at a time.

Yes, you can sync subfolders with Outlook. You can configure exactly which folders you'd like to sync using ActiveSync.

Hi,
Sorry that my response took so long, I was out on a spontaneous party ;)
Thanks for the answers :!: :D
However I have some uncertainties concerning my first question about grouping by categories and would be grateful if you took the time to see my questions.

:?: Actually it is not even possible to SORT by categories in outlook, only "grouping" (I am not shure if that is the exact english equivalent word). Do you know it it is possible to GROUP by categories (not only filter)?

:?: And is it possible to see categories as a own "field" (I am not shure here either if that is the exact english eqvivalent word) the way you can see "Subject" and "Due date" in different fields in the task list?

Is it possible to transfer categories that you create yourself in outlook (that has a lot of tasks conncected to them) to wizard, or create the new categories in wizard.

Last question. If the answer is no to the above questions, is it easy (only one or two steps) to filter by categories? In outlook there is many steps to do that.

Nope, you can't group or sort by categories - you can only see tasks in a particular category, one category at a time.

And is it possible to see categories as a own "field" (I am not shure here either if that is the exact english eqvivalent word) the way you can see "Subject" and "Due date" in different fields in the task list?


Nope, you can't display the category field on the task list.

Is it possible to transfer categories that you create yourself in outlook (that has a lot of tasks conncected to them) to wizard, or create the new categories in wizard.

That I'm not sure, but I don't see why not.

Last question. If the answer is no to the above questions, is it easy (only one or two steps) to filter by categories? In outlook there is many steps to do that.

Yep, real easy. Tap on Menu, then Filter, then select a category.

If possible, I would borrow a Pocket PC from someone and try it out for yourself. Or I'm sure your mobile phone store will have a reasonable return policy :)

Thanks for taking the time to answer all my questions! :D Now I have the information I need to make a decision.

I am going to check the filtering function and see if it suits my needs but I wish it was possible to group them by cateory.
If you know of any other smartmobile were that is possible please let me know.
