Sync question from I Phone Convert

[mineralcobra]

I am newly converted to Android, and am having troubles figuring out how to do some things I Tunes used to do for me. I want to Sync my outlook contacts and calander to my Xoom. My Thunderbolt has an HTC sync program that works resonably well, but I cannot find anything for the Xoom to do the same.

Is there any Google Sync program that performs the same function as Active Sync for MSFT, or I Tunes for CrApple? Seems to me that Android would have some sort of standard sync program by now, well hopefully anyway.

isnycr or doubletwist for itunes should work.
Don't know about the other issue.

As far as the Calendar sync, have you tried Google Calendar Sync? It's not perfect, but it works reasonably well. On most Android devices, the default Calendar app is Google Calendar (why Outlook calendar isn't an option has always been a question) So if you download Google Calendar Sync to your PC, then your Outlook Calendar will sync to your Google Calendar which will show on your device.

As for syncing your contacts, export them from Outlook and then import them into Gmail. They should then automatically sync with your Xoom if you have it set up that way.

Thanks for the replies.

HTC Sync does the goods for Outlook, but I dont think it will work with the Xoom. I read in another Thread that Active Sync has been used by some here so I might try that as well.
