That is, you have an ActiveSync service which runs on Windows and which you can write plugins for (of course plugins for Exchange already exist). But I might be wrong, I don't know whether the protocol the WinCE device is talking to the ActiveSync service is somehow consistent. Might be. > 2.

AFAIK the API is available, one could write an ActiveSync plugin for Windows (just like you can write an MAPI SP plugin for Outlook). But this is quite some work. Another thought: maybe MultiSync already has the protocol reverse engineered.
