Hit the Fetch New Data tab and scroll to the bottom to the “Advanced” tab. That is where these settings are located for MobileMe, but Exchange may be a different animal.

I can not seem to find any settings for individually setting up contacts, mail and calendar pushing, feting or manual. Although I am using exchange for my push stuff, are these individual settings only available for MobileMe?</p> Tom, under Fetch New Data on my iPhone 3Gs settings I can only turn Push on or off. I can not seem to find any settings for individually setting up contacts, mail and calendar pushing, feting or manual. Although I am using exchange for my push stuff, are these individual settings only available for MobileMe?

Push mail is staying on though….

Again, the key to it is that I was using primarily EDGE and WiFi for the mixed use!!

What happens if I have the same mixed use and leave it on 3G all day? Am I going to get my 20% warning at 2 hours and be dead by 3? Seriously…

Summerboard and Customize 2.0 sucked. All i needed the installer for were Japanese input and some little games. 2.0 delivers both. The only things i will miss so far are Taskbar Notifier and kb. But i am sure they will also find their way into one of the next firmwares.</p> I don’t care about any jailbreak any more. Summerboard and Customize 2.0 sucked.
