Can you give me some advice on the following migration:


Old platform
—————
Dell desktop
Visor Platinum
DateBk V-5.0b
Outlook 2000
I use Desktop-to-go to sync CONTACTS ONLY with Visor. I do this because recurrence and alarms on todos and appts are crucial to me. I simply maintain todos/appts on visor.

New platform
——————
IBM Thinkpad
Treo 650
DateBk latest version
Outlook 2003
Chapura (Professional XT, which I think is best version)

Here’s what I was intending:
1. Upgrade to DateBk5 latest version on Dell
2. Install DateBk5 latest version on Thinkpad.
3. Beam DateBk5 databases from Visor to Treo using FileZ (can I run this on old Visor?)
4. Sync DateBk5 with Outlook 2003 using one-time transfer from PDA to computer.
5. Sync normally after that, being careful to only create/modify todos with alarms/recurrence on Treo.

Is this the right way to go?

Personally, I would export all my PIM from the old Visor and then do a freash install on the Treo 650. And then of course import all the old PIM info to the 650 using the Palm desktop....
