Default email w/o data plan

Hello,

If you use Outlook email just on your computer without a data plan (to save $), will it sync your email that is on your computer? Or is there a way to do that with some other third-party program? Also are there any free programs at all for the Q? I read somewhere that nearly everything costs. That is a bummer seeing as the Q doesn't seem to have many features at all for a smartphone (I haven't bought it yet). I am talking about like a free program for Notes, for example.

OK so, to summarize and bump:

Outlook email w/o data plan? Is it possible?

Any free programs at all? Free notes program?

Thanks in advance!

OK, thanks, and I just thought of one more: how much space is available and taken up on a new Q with nothing on it? What I'm getting at is how many programs (if any) can you put on the Q without getting a memory card? I think I'm just going to get an SD card since they're pretty cheap.

it all depends on the programs... storage usage can be seen at Start > System Tools > Memory Manager.

Does anyone know for sure if email works with syncing to your computer only (without a data plan)? I'm sure most of you have data plans, but if anyone has done this I would like to know.

yes it will sync the email on your computer without a data plan...there would be no reason for it to access the internet while hooked up to your computer while just copying files from outlook over...no data required
