Mail for Exchange available on Nokia N73, N95
Just last week we showed you a short video on RoadSync, the Dataviz client that syncs with Microsoft Exchange and provides Direct Push e-mail for Nokia and Palm devices. If you’re looking for another option on your Nokia N73 or N95, Mail for Exchange 1.6.1 is ready and waiting for you. Mail for Exchange is Nokia’s ActiveSync client and provides a free alternative to a third-party application; if you want the direct download, you can find it here.
I don’t have either model of these devices that support Mail for Exchange, but if I recall, James does have the Nokia N95. If one or two of you hassle him enough in the comments, I’m betting you can convince him to give it a try and share his thoughts. Maybe we can get enough commenters to pull him away from his shiny new Blackberry 8830. ;)

Installed and working great on n95, firmware 11.x. Hopefully better than RoadSync!
I’ve been using this for some time now on my Nokia E50, and it does work beautifully. I goofed a bit when installing it on another phone at work, though; the more-or-less-default option is for it to wipe the address book before the first sync and then take the content from the Exchange contacts instead. Mistake! :) Those contacts weren’t saved, so ba-woosh, flushed those. Not so happy faces ensued.
Works great, though. Very seamless experience. I’m sure it works identically on the N-series now as it has for a while on the E-series.
