NitroDesk has released another solution to syncing your contacts with your Android-powered handset. This method is entirely within the application itself, no need for any PC client. TouchDown securely connects to corporate exchange systems to provide users with instant access to contacts, email and calendar information.
TouchDown not only provides users with a great way to fetch their information, but also allows users to check for new email and events periodically. TouchDown is designed to keep Exchange and Google information separated. “While the information is separately maintained, we do not rule out the possibility of features in the future that enable synchronization or at least selective movement between the stores”, claims NitroDesk.
Users can now download TouchDown from the NitroDesk website. NitroDesk plans to have their application on Handango.com. Initially users will be able to download the free trial with all of the features enabled. Licenses can then be purchased wherever the application was downloaded from for $29.99. There is no word yet on whether we will be seeing TouchDown in the Android Market.

If I could get reimbursed by my company I'd buy it, but they gave me a Blackberry Curve to use. That will do for me.

Still waiting for something that will actually send as well as receive emails through my corporate Exchange server...you know, like a lot of other phones do for free?

Need something that will just sync Outlook without exchange

My true gratitude and wallet contributions will go to the first company that develops an app with full Exchange 2003 support. NitoDesk's support said they will not include E2003 in future release. Their response can be summarized by: too much work, simpler just to do 2007.

Sadly, the UI does need a bit or work to make it look and feel less like a 3rd party app. Works with my Exchange server in the office, but I'm just not enjoying the difference experience over the default Gmail app which looks simple and elegant, and works well

After reading this review of the BB Storm, I'm thoroughly convinced that the G1 would be a killer device in the Enterprise space with native Exchange capabilities. It also has me wondering if the code to the Gmail app was extensible enough to add Exchange support as a service rather than a standalone app.

Glad to see the progress on the Exchange integration but I too suffer from having to live with Exchange 2003 at work

I need something that will work with Emails through MS Exchange 2003, not just contacts. Hopefully, that capability will come soon....

I love this app. There are still a few features I wish it had, but it's getting there. All of the rapid updates make it an exciting addition to my Android.

Got it working wonderfully... Don't need to carry my Nokia E61i for BB anymore (unless I'm out of the country where BB and TMO have a VERY good flat rate roaming plan)

I just got my G1 and I need Exchange sync badly. However, I think that $30 is too much for an app like this. I saw another one, ContactsCalendarSync, on the market for just $9.95. I'm gonna go for this one.

If all you need is Outlook to Gmail sync (calendar and contacts), gSyncit works very well and is reasonably priced:

Those looking to try it, download first and pass your OWA (Outlook Web Access) server name and see if it can connect to show new emails.
Sending emails and other features are disabled until you register. Use interval check vs Push, but good enough for most of us wanting to use a G1 to check Exchange server mail.
Worked fine with our Exchange 2003 Server. by NPS_CA
