This is now my permanent method to store contacts. I use outlook mail though (phone numbers + email addresses). Easy to switch across various platforms like iOS, WP etc.

Thats how even I used to be. But later I realize accessing the official exchange server many a times becomes a pain.
(especially for contacts).

Google mail seemed much easier for contacts since contacts are personal and not official. So I chose to sync contacts
]on personal mail rather than official mail.

Todays's phones anyway support sync'ing of multiple mail accounts.
I have an Android on which now I sync office mail and calender which is on outlook ( but no contacts. )

On my personal gmail, I sync mail, calendar and contacts.

Sorry, I should have mentioned it more clearly. By outlook I meant the msn/hotmail account. My hotmail account is with outlook.com domain :)

Sorry did not realize that!
Outlook for me was always a default exchange server for me. :)

They delivered the new piece in 5 days and i am posting this reply from that very phone.

iPhone 5 is widely expected to be roll out in India in the next few days, although Apple has consistently declined to announce a launch date in the country. According to sources, the company may price the device between Rs 46,000 and Rs 61,000, depending on the varian

i noticed a weird thing after the iOS 6 upgrade; this is related to the in-built mail application. so, i've my Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail and Exchange servers configured on my phone. when i'm in my Gmail or Yahoo account and i'm reading through emails, the Delete icon at the bottom is a new one:

however, for Exchange and Hotmail, the icon is still the old one:

any idea why this might be? is it that the devs@apple forgot about copy-pasting the code for the Exchange module? :D

"Archive or Delete Messages in Mail:

A common Mail complaint among Gmail users has long been the need to choose between archiving and deleting a message. iOS just never provided a way to choose on the fly. Now you can. To do this, open a message, tap and hold the Archive button, and make your choice. The unfortunate reality is that you have to actually open the message to do this. You can't tap and hold the Archive button in list view to get these options. That said, it's a welcome improvement. We still prefer Sparrow, though."
