Desktop solution for syncing Tasks/ToDo/Calendar on droid?

[gizbug]

Being a long time OUTLOOK user on my Windows PC, I am use to my previous smartphone syncing these items with my phone. As of now, I see there is a google sync app, but unfortunately this doesn't work with the latest Office 2010 Public Beta. I have yet to hear of a time frame when support will be announced. So it looks like I am no solution running Outlook 2010 any syncing anything to my phone.

What are users on here doing for a desktop to droid sync for your TODO/Calendar, etc? I like Google Calendar, just don't like having to open a web browser on my pc to access my calendar.

Does the Outlook "Export (contacts/calendar) to file (csv)" -> Import (contacts/calendar) to Gmail web session -> Synch to DROID process not work?

Yes, that works. But that is a manual import method. Opposed to updating stuff on the PC (outlook in my case)....and having an automatic option for it to sync to google/droid.
