Ok, I used Lookout for about 2 years and I managed to find a workaround for the unfinished and not correct working functions.
I used it with my MP120 and so the first task was to reduce the amount of data to be transferred.
So I synced names only and only in one direction (Newt to PC)
or dates only in one direction (Newt to PC)
and so on.
I used the serial connection only.
Of course this will drain the battery because the serial transfer needs some additional energy and it will take quiet a long time.
I could not get the german ae oe ue umlauts right to the PC, ok not a big problem.
But so far LookOut fulfilled my needs.

Hi -
Does anybody have any views on LookOut for connecting to MS Outlook ? I
just tried it and it seems, well, unfinished (like just about all Newton
connectivity sw). Also it seemed to drain my batteries (using serial
connection). Using email connection doesn't seem to work... And it doesn't
appear to have a website anywhere. But still... I used to use Landware's
Sync+ on my 120, but that seems to have gone, and anyway it was for MS
Schedule...
David
