Default Best way to sync Outlook files between desktop and laptop

I have a desktop PC on a home network that acts as a server. I have
two mobiles, one laptop I use sometime but a TabletPC that i use
frequently. As I said this main desktop PC is in a sense acting as a
server and everything runs Windows XP. I have already posted
elsewhere (Tablet PC Newsgroup) about this since I will also be
syncing the My Documents folder. Anyway, seems that SyncToy 1.2 is
the program I've come up with for doing that.
My question, I think this could be used for Outlook but some people
are suggesting SynchPST as the best and it was suggested I post here.
Is this the best tool to use? Any better suggestions? It would be
best if it's an automatic sync but yet if it's a manual sync that I
have to do such as when leaving the office that is okay as well.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Default Best way to sync Outlook files between desktop and laptop

I also use a notebook and a desktop PC, but I decided to use outlook
only at the notebook. (makes sense). Do you just receive the mails and
you want to sync the mails afterwards or a you using a kind of an
exchange-server?

I store the files on my desktop in a folder since I frequently use
email but basically I want it so that when I go out of the office with
my laptop I have the outlook files along with me fo rwhen I check
email or reference stores emails, contacts, etc.
