vista sync support mobile devices

I cannot believe that Vista will not allow WM2005 devices to sync to the built in Cal, Contacts & Mail apps. The new windows sync update only appears to support Outlook so for basic pda/windows mobile users we still need to purchase MS Office to get Outlook. I do not need the full Office/Outlook features for a one PC setup but want to be able to sync with my windows mobile device so assumed that when the calendar was added this would allow basic users to sync just like apple do with iCal.Hopefully when the final release appears ms will add this feature.
