We’re sold on the iPhone here as a business device. Sure, it’s not as flexible as we hoped, but it’s a rev. 1 product, and it’s still the easiest way to keep in contact via email, SMS and for actual calling.

However, there are aspects of its functions that are distinctly limited. There’s no way of backing up information like call logs or SMSes. And the Notepad application is completely brain-dead.

While I’m hoping that Apple will answer these problems in due course (synching the Notepad to a Notes folder in Leopard would make me very happy,) Mark/Space have gone and got there first. They’ve released Missing Sync for iPhone which answers all the problems described above.

We’ve not played around with it much, so will hold off on the full review for a little later.

And best of all? If you’re an iPhone convert and have used Missing Sync for another device in the past? You’ll get this version for $24.95 instead of $39.95. That’s a bargain.
