I signed up with MightyPhone today
because no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get iCal
and my 3650 to play well together (well, it worked once and then it crapped
out after that). MightyPhone is a web-based application that lets you enter
contacts, appointments, and todo items using a web browser, and then you sync
over the network using SyncML. To use it, you’ll need to download Nokia’s SyncML app.
After you install this app, don’t bother setting up a profile; MightyPhone will
send your phone a couple of SMS messages that help automate the configuration,
and their web site will walk you through the setup when you sign up for a trial
account.
All in all, MightyPhone looks like a cool service. I really like the idea of my
calendar being decoupled from any particular machine I own. If it proves to be
reliable and doesn’t have any nasty bugs that bite me, I’ll probably stick with
it.
Hi,
did you continue with MightyPhone or not? I ask as I saw you were also an Evolution user and your blog came up in a Google search. Have you ever come across a way to synch Evolution with Mightyphone?
I’ve tried alsorts of ways by trying to sync usign MultiSync and Mightyphone. This fails as I think Mightyphone only allow their own clients to connect.
I’ve also tried a three way sync using Multisync between Evolution to my phone directly, then my phone to MightyPhone. This fails too!
I’d be interested if you came up with any ideas or solutions?
Cheers
Ferg
Hi Ferg,
Unfortunately, I stopped using MightyPhone a while ago, and haven’t experimented further with it.
