Can't sync Outlook Notes w/ Windows Mobile Device Center (Vista)

I've just installed my Windows Vista Business edition, and along with it the
new Windows Mobile Device Center (which I understand replaces ActiveSync on
Vista systems). I'm trying to get it to sync my Outlook 2007 notes folder to
my Motorola Q Smartphone (Windows Mobile 5), but it appears that option isn't
available. From what I can see within Windows Mobile Device Center, I can
sync my Outlook Contacts, Calendar, E-mail and Tasks, but the Notes feature
is missing. However, it also appears that I can sync with Microsoft Office
OneNote.....am I required to use this instead, and if so, will I be required
to move all of my Outlook Notes entries into the Office OneNote application
(I certainly hope not).

Alternatively, is there a 3rd party application that can be used with
Windows Mobile Device Center that will enable Outlook Notes synchronization?
I tried using my previous Smartphone Notes add-in (which worked with Windows
XP/ActiveSync 4.2), but that's not working anymore under the new Vista system.

Thanks,
Terry

Thanks for the link.....however, this product looks like it's overkill for
what I'm aiming for....and I believe it'll only work with Outlook PST files,
whereas I'm on Exchange Server and therefore my Outlook uses an OST file.

Re: Can't sync Outlook Notes w/ Windows Mobile Device Center (Vist

It'll work. I'm using the WMDC with Exchange Server 2003/OST files and it
works fine. You have to have the WMDC to do anything except simple file
sync - just like you have to have ActiveSync to do anything but simple sync
in Windows XP/2000.
