If you use a Windows Mobile 6.0 or 6.1 handset, you can download My Phone right now from myphone.microsoft.com. Using this service, you’ll be able to update your contacts, add new tasks, download and edit documents, upload music/videos and manage your calendar and photos. Synchronization with the PC account will take place automatically or you’ll just have to click “sync” for an instantaneous syncing.

My Phone comes with 200 MB of free storage, but you should remember that the service won’t sync data if you’re using an active Microsoft Exchange server connection. Also, it won’t sync data stored on a memory card, info outside the My Documents folder on your phone or your SIM card contacts.
