Misleading article.

To say sychronizing files from your PDA to your Ford is the same as sharing folders on the web? That's a bit of a stretch.

Could there be some kind of uber- sharing-synchronization program? Beats me. Seems like there are a lot of market segments and problems. Why would we want one, big, bulky product that does a gazillion different types of synchronization?

You see, Microsoft gets it both ways. They write the product that does everything, people bitch about enterprise apps. If they write a dozen niche products that are somewhat similar, people bitch about duplication.

For me? I'm a big Groove fan, even if they did cut the crap out of the features to make it less competitive with their other stuff.
