Keeping contact data on a mobile phone and the personal e-mail client in sync can be a tedious task especially if multiple e-mail client instances are involved. In this article I’m going to show how the scenario with one of Sony Ericsson’s mobile phones and two instances of Thunderbird can be handled.
On the web there exists a bunch of synchronization services that provide the possibility to sync your contact, calendar, sms, and other data among multiple mobile phones using the SyncML protocol. Together with fitting plug-ins they can also be used to sync between mobile phone and e-mail client. The services tested by me are Mobical and ZYB which both have their advantages and drawbacks.
