The Reader

Thanks John. That looks very handy, and my concern is mainly Calendar, Contacts, Notes etc. I've saved the thread of discussion to digest it slowly.

It seemed likely to me that this has been asked before but I couldn't trace it.

Obviously it is important to be clear which device has the up-to-date data etc and to switch between desktop and laptop only using the fully updated mobile device. During the next two weeks I shall be syncing to my laptop instead of my desktop for the first time since getting my iPhone 3G a few months ago. Are there any issues I should be aware of before I switch over? I sync with MS Outlook on both desktop and laptop, both of which run Windows XP, and I have a fair number of various other files, photos, apps etc. Advice and comments are welcome - I don't want to find I have done something drastic and wiped the iPhone when I plug into iTunes on the laptop for the first time! (Or messed up in some other radical way)
