I'm a potential iphone user, coming over from the Microsoft Windows Mobile / Exchange environment. I have an ipod touch, so that I can get some visibility into the way the applie UI works. But I don't/haven't tried syncing it yet with my outlook.
Anyway, my question is how does the iphone deal with complex repeating appointments? I can see that it handles simple repeats (e.g. every day, every week, every 2 weeks, every month, every year). How does it deal with more complicated repeating appointments? (e.g Second Saturday of the month?)
Windows Mobile handles these appointment configurations natively. And if the ipod Touch doesn't handle it, I'm guessing current version of iphone doesn't handle it either.
Is it possible to make such an appointment in iCal? If so, or if you sync down from Outlook, how does it sync down into the iphone/touch? Does it sync down as multiple one day appointments?
Any idea if this is something Apple may fix in the upcoming 2.0 release?
Thanks!
