Is that true? I've not used Active Sync or Windows Mobile extensively, however, I do know that when you plug in a Mobile device Active Sync lets you choose what you wish to sync (just like Blackberry etc) and then off it goes. Everytime you plug the same device in, it will only sync the selected data (and automatically!). Dunno where you got this stylus thing from?! (early version maybe?!)
When my batteries run out nothing is lost (apps or data). It's all stored on the chip, however data being held in RAM is lost, as with any computer (yes, even Linux). You can't do a lot about that, except save your Word file before it dies I guess.
If you've ever bought an MS Mobile device I'm 99% sure you would have been provide with a license for Outlook to use with the device. I think it's more likely that your company skimpted on the phones and didn't think it was worth the extra. I've had several imate devices now (both personally and through work) and ALL came with an Outlook license.
How are you finding Palm with Exchange push technology? :)
