As far as I know, this auto sync with outlook cannot be done. You have to manually press the sync with outlook. But, this feature might be available already or in the future which I am not too sure as I am using auto-sync to gmail right now.

Thinkfree is free for download at android marketplace. Which phone you intend to buy? Most phones will come with ms office editting software already. Only when u don't like it, then you can search for alternatives.

i ve discovered that:

1) can only sync from MS outlook's contacts to device's people , but not from device's people to MS outlook's contacts

2) problems in the outlook's conatct telephone numbers field that android cannot read thus cannot be updated in the device's people

** its better to rely on the android people and keying in separately in the MS outlook for now

anyone has a solution?
