sync outlook.com & outlook desktop application

i'm really loving outlook.com - jumped all in and moved everything over from gmail.

do you all have any plans to add some type of sync functionality between outlook.com and the outlook desktop application?  i manage my contacts through the outlook desktop application, and it's a bit of a pain to export contacts from outlook desktop application to a .csv, then import into outlook.com.  would sure be nice if there was a way to sync content to & from these two relatives, especially contacts & calendars.

thanks

    Outlook.com will sync with Outlook 2013 with no problem, but those of us on earlier versions can download Microsoft Office Outlook Hotmail Connector at the link below and it will allow you to sync outlook.com with desktop outlook.  I just tried it and it works!!!

    Just tried it and that link is gone!

    When I tried the link from Cathy in SBG here is what I got.  I guess that is old info.

    Sorry, the page you’re looking for can’t be found.

    anything current?
